Not bias, but I was surprised to find out how Wikipedia is censoring information surrounding ChrisChan.
All of the articles mentioning him in English just say he's an internet personality, and his English Wikipedia page has been removed.
That kind of censorship doesn't sit will with me. What else are they keeping from us?
This is to stop a cyberbullying campaign against a disabled person
probably other things to harrass individuals with?
Yeah, no.
It's still censorship even if the person in question wants it to be censored.
People shouldn't get to dictate whether or not wikipedia articles are made of them.
If I made a wikipedia page showing your social security and banking information would your stance hold true?
Wikipedia already doesn't allow that, so your question is pointless.
These people know the CWCwiki exists, right? I mean I was obsessed with CWC a little over 10 years ago, too, but I have long since lost interest in the whole matter.
That doesn't make it ok.
