    Wikipedia - a useful tool


    Just wanted to express my slight disappointment at the lack of MRA type issues being added to wikipedia

    I've been doing a hell of a lot of wikipedia editing over the last 8 months or so, and although some people are dismissive of it, I find it mostly an incredibly useful way to get the truth out.

    I strongly reccomend more people start editing wikipedia - it takes bit of getting used to, but if you approach it in the right way you can really make a difference.

    I'd advise people to stay away from articles where there is a lot of controversy and which are covered already (no matter how badly) and instead write about mra type people/organsiations or cases and people in society where there is an MRA angle that has been ignored.

    Alternatively you can also write about anti male organsastions and help to add balance to thsoe article where relevent.

    I try not to discuss my specifc edits here as that is generally frowned upon. however if anyone wants any specific tips or advice feel free to pm me.

    I started the original "antifeminism". It has been heavily modified since.

    The most offensive thing you can do to a feminist is treat her with FULL equality.

    Husband : "How about the ones like mine?"
    Wife : "Those they gave away."
    Husband : "I had a dream too...I dreamt they were auctioning off pussy. The pretty ones went for a thousand dollars, and the little tight ones went for two thousand."
    Wife : "And how much for the ones like mine?"
    Husband : "That's where they held the auction."

    Re: Wikipedia - a useful tool

    FYI German MRAs started their own wiki because of the heavy editing via feminist editors. Is this happening in other wikis as well?
    The men's and fathers' movement needs to make sure it never sees females as the enemy,
    but only misandry--whether from females or from males.
    If not, we'll become like the bigoted feminists that this movement was formed to oppose.

    Well...Kudos for your efforts.

    Understand that I, along with MANY professors and "peers" with integrity, do not even CONSIDER references from Wikipedia as valid, for reasons probably best set fourth by
    it's own creators.

    Much as I don't consider prolific graffiti to be a measure of a structures architectural integrity.

    I must agree, however, that particular "Wiki" has value for what ISN'T explored, and/or what is repeatedly erased by "others",
    kinda' like Russians had to extrapolate from what WASN'T addressed by Pravda or TASS.

    BUT, Keep hammerin' johnkimble1!

    Thanks again for the instructions and the advice. Wikipedia and The Urban Dictionary are must-have resources, if you want to keep up with current topics and vernacular. I think I'll look up "Mangina" to see if it's defined on Wiki.

    Re: Wikipedia - a useful tool

    Just a reminder that anyone wanting advice on how to be sucessful on WIkipedia is more than welcome to contact me.

    My most successful edit on there has spread to some 500 websites/forums, so you really can have an incredible impact over time.

    My best advice would be to make sure you act relatively civilly and ensure you stick to the rules. I've seen so many feminists banned for misconduct on there that I can guarantee you'd be caught out eventually.

    Yeah, being civil isn't something everyone is capable of. This seems to be a common issue within feminist groups.

    I edit all over the place. The feminist cancer is all over Wikipedia but there are some good people out there as well.

    Re: Wikipedia - a useful tool

    My experience with wikipedia showed it to be a politically biased Misandrist farce that no researcher of worth would bother with, and those are its good points.

    I was fighting a case against the Dykes who take over the streets of SF in the annual Dyke March / Anti Male Hate Riot and cited both Wikipedia and Answer.com and their definition of Dyke - for their published position that Dykes were "Hostile to Men"...

    Not to prove the Fact that Dykes are kreatures of Misandry (kind of obvious really) - but rather that I was not alone in recognizing the Dykes Hate Men, and that others had made similar observations as well...

    Shortly after I turned in my brief citing these facts, the Reply from my opponents brief Also cited the wikipedia entry defining Dyke - which amazingly now had a completely different content, which amazingly mirrored the position of my opponents (not about Dykes Hating Men, they didn't touch that hot wire) - but rather in Praising Dykes (houda thunk somebody so hateful could be so wonderful) and claiming that the term Dyke had been "Re-appropriated" - by Dykes.

    Tried to make additions to the entry clarifying what had happened to the entry, but was locked out from doing so...

    So - Wikipedia Changed the 'facts' in the middle of a legal case where they had been cited as evidence, and allowed no corrections afterward to show the manner of manipulation, and I am supposed to 'trust' such a scam?

    Reminds me of the Evil Soviet Empire, where such 'facts' (and people too) were subject to elimination by Censorship, and Changed at the whims of the Commissars...

    Which is actually the nature of the Kommissars of the Abomination, for whom all PC Censorship is in service of 'tolerance'...

    Because after all - Tolerance Macht Frei!
