Parapsychologist

(This was written over a year ago and not published . . . ) Reviewing some RationalWiki articles, I see a common trope that is a fundamental error. Articles on persons interested in the paranormal call them “parapsychologists,” even if they are not engaged in scientific study. Simply being a student of the paranormal or … Continue reading “Parapsychologist”

Anglo Pyramidologist

I will be reporting newer activity on this page: wikipedia/anglo-pyramidologist/new/ UNDER MAJOR REVISION This study of the massive socking called “Anglo Pyramidologist” was originally on the meta wiki, the first study having been moved from wikiversity to avoid disruption, as the file User:Abd/LTA/Anglo Pyramidologist, but was deleted there for mysterious reasons, given that it was the … Continue reading “Anglo Pyramidologist”

Abd ul-Rahman Lomax

Work in progress original version here updated to reflect the current version of the RationalWiki article. The original version (linked above) covers some of the history, this version is intended to focus on fact and the claims of the article. RationalWiki articles, in general, collapse fact and interpretation, presenting a standard snarky point of view. … Continue reading “Abd ul-Rahman Lomax”

List of articles

The appearance of a page history here and of suspected AP socks who have edited that page is not a defense of the subject of the page. In many cases, I have no independent knowledge. (When I have, on occasion, researched the article targets, I have found gross exaggeration in the articles, at best. At worst, … Continue reading “List of articles”

Some posts on Gender Desk, a blog “Tracking Wikipedia … so the barbarians don’t win” Abd files a lawsuit APRIL 21, 2019 Nice, friendly, more knowledgeable — by far — than most, but the situation is complex.

The story

DRAFT Wikiversity I abandoned Wikipedia in 2011, having concluded that the quest for WP neutrality was hopeless, and focused all my wiki attention on Wikiversity, where neutrality was routinely attainable. I was an administrator on Wikiversity during several periods and was very active developing resources and protecting the site. This, however, attracts opposition, and by … Continue reading “The story”

Democratic fascism

Democratic fascism? Is that an oxymoron? No. Fascism, here, I am giving the broadest definition. See the blog post, The core of fascism. The core of fascism, as I am coming to see it, is a collective conviction combined with intolerance of divergent views, opinion, or even states of being, resulting in suppression of the … Continue reading “Democratic fascism”
