After spending more than 10 years contributing to Wikipedia, I stumble across it's article on Parler.com.

The first paragraph states:

Parler is an American microblogging and social networking service. It has a significant user base of Donald Trump supporters, conservatives, conspiracy theorists, and far-right extremists. Posts on the service often contain far-right content, antisemitism, and conspiracy theories such as QAnon. Journalists have described Parler as an alt-tech alternative to Twitter, and users include those banned from mainstream social networks or who oppose their moderation policies.

I stated on the articles talk page that I believe the opening paragraph was obviously not neutral. After some ridiculous back and forth, I postulated that there may be individuals arguing in favor, of breaking standard Wikipedia policy, and they might be on the payroll of Twitter. Which is also against Wikipedia policy.

I was immediately banned for life.

Wikipedia is priceless for things like 18th century French art.

Wikipedia is poisoned for anything to do with politics or contemporaneous public policy.

Interesting. Agree 100%. Friends don’t let friends use Wikipedia. Sadly, computers have students people lazy. It’s fun to research music on Wiki and difficult to research books on music.
