Allegedly, #Wikitherapy 's objective is to integrate people into society, but the learning patterns only speak of how to best exclude them.
A thread about the selection & exclusion criteria for this ableist, exploitative project 🧵

Some recommendations: "Don't accept everybody, you can choose your students", "conduct individual interviews to select the students before you initiate the course", "Do not work with acute patients. Select day hospital patients or in ambulatory treatment"...

Los proyectos LGBT+ de Wikipedia no promueven ni garantizan la calidad de sus artículos, fomentan su destrucción para volver a elaborarlos (uno de los factores que consideran los filtros es el autor del artículo). No sólo se ha detenido la creación de contenidos... 🧵 1/5 2. ...sino que se ha frenado la mejora de los ya existentes, quitándoles mucha visibilidad.
Wikipedia fomenta el trabajo editorial otorgando medallas de artículo destacado.
No se seleccionó ningún artículo destacado LGBT entre 2010 y 2022. Image

Admins, as well as “anti vandalism” voluntaries, aka, trolls, have patrolling rights. Spanish wiki has 191 troll-cops in charge of “polemic” articles, encouraged to revert any edition interpreted by them as vandalic. 🧵 1. They were renamed as “reversores”, but the police role is still there as can be seen in their userbox. They are in charge of the surveillance of the articles deemed as “polemic”, as well as any other articles they want to watch.

On today's thread, intersexuality representation on Spanish Wikipedia. 🧵

As for 2022, there were only 24 biographies of intersex people... 🚩 9 of them are focused on athletes and don’t indicate intersex identity on the plantilla except for Erik Schinegger. He is, however, misgendered on the article even when it states that he chose to live as a man and be called Erik.

Noté que en el historial de un artículo desaparecieron mis ediciones y sólo se marcaban mis aportaciones en la página de Discusión. No sé si es por algo técnico, pero no pude evitar preguntarme si podía ser obra de Jaluj y secuaces.
Wikipedia es un fraude 🧵 (1/7) Así aprendí que lxs bibliotecarixs tienen este poder y más. Son los únicos que pueden borrar páginas y restaurar páginas borradas. Pueden manipular la transparencia de la información: ocultar ediciones, ocultar resúmenes de edición, ver y mostrar ediciones ocultas... (2/7)

Beware:
Wikipedia is exploitative
Wikipedia is ableist
Wikipedia is a FRAUD! Wikimedia doesn’t care for the society it claims to help. Kleiman’s productivity and networking allowed to replicate in Buenos Aires an exploitative and unethical experiment called Wikitherapy, that first started in the Daycare Center for Adults in Argostoli, Greece... Image

A thread on the admin revalidation charade.
If someone loses admin rights, regardless of the amount of evidence of breaching important behavior & administration rules, they can just easily run for adminship again with their community support.
Wikipedia is a fraud!
1/6 Over the past decade, many active bibliotecarios have lost this right and attained it again either by opening a new account or by cynical reelection processes. Andrea Kleiman/Jaluj, for instance, gained admin rights in 2011 as Andrea teletrabajo... 2/6

The goal of this project was not to make women more visible. It was to brand them, in an international effort that English, German & French Wikipedia -at least that we’re aware of- have been part of.
Not happy with excluding trans women out of the women category... 🧵 Women’s projects made extra efforts to distinguish “biological” women. One of them was “woman (Q467)”, described as “female adult human”, but different from “female” and “female human”, or produced sound “female voice”, mantained by Wikiproject Women...

There are even more women’s biographies hidden in Spanish Wikipedia, that don’t appear under the category “Women”. At least 615 women have a Wikipedia article but don’t meet the criteria, even though they appear under other categories... Unsurprisingly, most of them are African & Asian women, from ancient queens, poets, and warriors, to athletes, mainly Judo & Tae Kwan Do.
The racist and colonial logic of this categorization becomes even more noticeable when looking for indigenous women.

This happens all the time on article pages of LGBTQ+ people
The anti-abuse filter, patrollers and adminship are run by trolls, who encourage trolling
On this thread I'll show you how this bias works, and doesn't protect us 🧵 On Spanish Wiki, Elliot Page is under constant threat.
There's trolls spreading hate speech & admins encouraging deadnaming, or arguing in favour of Elliot's pre-transition red carpet pictures, when he's been open about how distressing they were.

A quick dive into the TERF page history to show how Wikipedia’s articles are used for hate speech indoctrination 🧵
Image
Image The bias from GC users is hidden, making it seem on the reference list as legit. according to Wikipedia, must be reliable, unbiased official sources and not opinion articles or marginalised views. In this case, two “authorities” are provided to claim that the word terf is a slur.

Wikipedia's gender gap research FRAUD! 🚨
A much needed thread on how gender data's been tampered for a decade of $ & faulty research, starting with an essay from the leader of women & feminisms projects: women face online the same struggles as "the blacks" after slavery 1/8

Image
Image This essay is an example of how previous research is missrepressented to fit GC interests.
It shows a concerning lack of seriousness or academic value. Everything's built on confirmation bias.
There's no questioning, for instance, of the nonsense of one of the sources: 2/8 Image
