Not sure if people are aware but the gateway pundit is a far right fake news site known for publishing hoaxes.
In this case they do actually link to a source: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-08/smoke-sends-northeast-solar-power-plunging-by-50-as-wildfires-rage
I guess they'll be calling for more coal power stations now to help them through the climate crisis?
Interesting. That sounds terrible.
What Hoaxes have they published?
There are a bunch so instead of going through them I'll link the Wikipedia page.
I think the cofounder of Wikipedia said all that needs to be said about the credibility of Wikipedia
Tells me all I need to know about you lol
Just having a bit of fun
I'm struggling to understand what the fun you're having is.
I had to lookup your quote to find it's attributed to "Larry Sanger" who hasn't worked with wikipedia for 20 years...
It feels like leaving that out and just posting the quote was intentionally misleading. Is misleading people in this community fun for you?
Are you saying Larry's view should not be considered
No, but the way you framed it it was suggesting this was a recent change. As far as I can tell he's been at odds with wikipedia since he left in 2002.
His views is that since 2002 the site is more left leaning.
Context is super important and I'm trying to find what you were joking about.
Listen to what Joe Organ says about Wikipedia

Joe Rogan isn't exactly a creditable source of anything. He regularly makes up shit. It's best not to assume anything he says is creditable and be surprised when he actually talked to an expert about something.
