RationalWiki talk:To do list/Suggestions
|
Did you mean to edit the main RationalWiki:To do list talk page instead? There's a lot more activity there than here. |
|
If you're here to make a suggestion, it probably won't get noticed here. You can go back to the New article suggestions section on the RationalWiki:To do list page itself and follow the directions there. |
isaac kappy[edit]
its qanon bullshit but this time with adding gawking at a mans psychosis and worded in such way that people are effectively voting yay to this bullshit as it had some merit. its not fit for purpose, but a note and strike through to highlight its actually nonsense is reverted for 'reasons' and they dont like commenting things out either though thats what should be done. what the fuck is the issue here?

- the voting here is not binding in any way. its merely a straw poll to see if there is any interest. its easily gamed (for not much point). it is not crossing some line or some criminal interference in sullying the integrity and sanctity of a sacred democratic institution. we can and ought to remove nonsense that promotes exactly the kind of crazy theories this site was created to combat. but nope. keep the bullshit just because.

- Aside from "yay celebrity" I'm guessing it's the QAnon stuff and subsequent conspiracy theories that I think people are voting for, which still are swirling around today. For instance, shithole Trump lawyer Lin Wood (who actually IMHO is a far worthier candidate for an article) recently referenced Kappy in the usual QAnon manner (Trump Emperor God! Pedo deep state conspiracy!), and 4Chan searches on the term "Kappy" reveal the /pol/ types who feel that Kappy's suicide reveals the usual "controlled by the (ethnic slur) (((deep state)))" bullshit where he was being stopped by The Man from revealing The Pedo Conspiracy instead of merely jumping off a highway bridge. I don't know if he needs a whole article, he really seems tied into the QAnon universe. If anything, maybe adding a small blurb to the QAnon Hollywood section would be enough from my perspective.

2022 Midterm Elections[edit]
I am requesting a 2022 Midterm Election article.
Both climatology and political science are sciences. RationalWiki does have climatologists projections as far as climate change. So why not have political scientists projections on the 2022 Midterm Elections? Geregen3 (talk) 22:09, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
Ian-Miles Cheong[edit]
So, someone suggested Ian-Miles Cheong in 2020 and someone else did this again last year. Can someone merge these 2 or erase one of them? I'm not sure what needs to happen, so I'm keeping my hands off of it. Arcadium Trancefer (talk) 12:30, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
Where do we put recently completed articles that have fallen out of the top ten?[edit]
I don't know where to put the "Josh Hawley" entry. Would someone more experienced than me tell me where to put it? VeeMeow? 20:11, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Last time I saw someone update the new articles/top ten list, they just deleted the bottom-most/oldest one. I did likewise when I tried my hand at it. DietMondrian (talk) 03:11, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
- I've done likewise. I'm not sure we need any more notice that a new article was created beyond that. As long as new articles are otherwise properly categorized, and interlinked with other pages, integrated with a navbar (if applicable), they should be sufficiently discoverable.

Fitz info[edit]
Can we create a page for fitzinfo? https://fitzinfo.net/
Here is the gist of their beliefs Extremely anti Russian. Believing it is still communist. In fact this is the main point of the blog
