Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 05:06:08 @hacks4pancakes Just realized that this could affect Wikipedia. So many sources may be disappearing! |
Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 05:32:00 Wikipedia is privately run. But can definitely use donations in the face of this harrassment. |
Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 08:41:49 @oldoldcojote @eibriel it’s brittle in the face of the destruction of cited sources |
Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 09:30:29 Lets hope someone is archiving those sources. Seems like a lot of good people are using their skills to do that. |

Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 05:40:04 @wndlb Wikipedia requires cross-references |

Föderation EN Do 13.02.2025 06:00:09 @wndlb @eibriel @hacks4pancakes Not that I'm aware of, but government documents have been used as sources to verify Wikipedia info. Without sources, Wikipedia becomes less reliable. |
Föderation DE Do 13.02.2025 06:55:15 @eibriel @hacks4pancakes time to not only download Wikipedia but also other projects and keep independent and decentralized mirrors with all the edit history |
