Feminists’ Manipulation Of Wikipedia Content

By Mike Buchanan: I’m a big fan of Wiki, and barely a day goes by during which I don’t consult the site on some matter. But when it comes to gender political matters, the site is highly inaccurate, due to the dire influence of feminist editors. My thanks to T for pointing me to a piece in which feminists describe and gloat about their manipulations of the site. It’s titled, ‘Chipping away at Wikipedia’s gender bias, one article at a time’.
Many Wiki pieces – including those on subjects without an obvious gender political angle, to normal people (i.e. non-feminists and anti-feminists) – have content starting with things like, ‘Feminist scholars say that…’, rather than the altogether more accurate, ‘Taxpayer-funded men-hating lying women say that…’.

Our own Wiki page is here, and I note it’s been edited recently, with a more critical tone. An excerpt:

In its election manifesto, the party identifies twenty areas in which it says that the rights of men and boys are being violated.[9] The manifesto received criticism after being revealed as quoting extensivley (sic) from Wikipedia and The Daily Mail and anti-women blogs such as “Judgybitch.com”[14]
Reference [9] leads not to our manifesto – although it would have taken only moments to include a link – but, surprisingly and pleasingly, to the ITV interview of Caroline Criado-Perez and myself, for which she received her third ‘Lying Feminist of the Month’ award. I assume the link will disappear shortly.
Reference (14) leads not to Janet Bloomfield’s outstanding blog – which could appear ‘anti-women’ only to deranged feminists – but to an article on J4MB.
