yeah, OsmAnd is open source, so someone else built it to be released on fdroid, and the original developers have said that they don't have a problem with that I think as long as they don't release it on Play/try to sell it
OsmAnd~ is free on fdroid
wait I'm not the only one who tried the video game thing? On my second playthrough of Horizon Zero Dawn I decided to swap to my target language just because I thought it would be funny, but it's actually been a kinda nice experience pausing during dialogue, tabbing over to a browser, and then looking up any words i don't know
alright that's fair, i was being too bitter and critical, perfect shouldn't be the enemy of good, and it certainly shouldn't accuse good of being propaganda
I'm just saying that creating green energy sources is not sufficient evidence that someone actually cares about climate change issues unless it has results
without a matching drop in emissions, any country/business who participates in "green energy" is just doing propaganda
ain't nothing but a heartache
Is there a song for the battle between Sabaton hater and Sabaton thread?
A good portion of the discussion in the review was recommending a migration to the event instead of the person
Really we've reached the Strawman segment of this argument?
Fine then, I shall reiterate my position in its entirety, with extra clarifying details, and then I'm done.
I dislike misinformation. Particularly misinformation designed to evoke anger, and I dislike the people who spread it because being angry is more important to them than being right. That's a pet peeve of mine I don't expect everyone to feel as strongly as I do, but when I see it in action I like to call it out in the hopes that maybe at least one person will improve their internet literacy.
And so on this post, I saw a number of people operating on the assumption that the article already existed, and was being deleted in response to the recent controversy to try to cover it up, that ticked my pet peeve and I chose to comment on it.
Now, since I have been forced to learn how to read Wikipedia discussion forums, I have been able to find the original comment requesting it for deletion which states "WP:1E. This man is famous as of yesterday for one event. Not notable." Now you're lucky enough to have the privilege of seeing this discussion on September 30th, after all the controversy has been marinating for a week. But that was not the case when the page was created and marked for deletion, which was one of the pieces of evidence brought up in the deletion discussion. The user who marked the page for deletion did also in a separate comment express support for migrating the page to be about the event instead of for the person, in accordance with Wikipedia's notability policy. So my money is on not a Nazi apologist (Why am I even entertaining this idea?)
Yes, there are a couple bad eggs in there, as our OP has so lovingly pointed out. And the ones referenced by OP specifically are anonymous users, whose comments have since been removed. So please I dare you to convince yourself that they are representative of Wikipedia's values.
You never responded to this point because you decided to play the Nazi card instead, so I'll say it again anyway for comprehensiveness. Bias is an inescapable factor of any policy enforcement, and Wikipedia seems to have established an effective process for reducing that. Maybe when I said "bias" you read "Nazi ideology" but let me clarify I really meant "someone slightly less passionate about this subject than you" or "someone didn't drink coffee this morning and so they're feeling a little grumpy"
TL;DR: This was a routine case of content moderation surrounding a controversial subject that Wikipedia handled with 5 Stars. Some users representative of Wikipedia supported the deletion of the newly created page because of their individual interpretations of Wikipedia's notability policy, and if you have a have a problem with that individual interpretation then go ahead. If you have a problem with those users being "Nazis" then please step away from the computer, go find a spot outside in the sun, and read a book. There are some users unrepresentative of Wikipedia as a whole who are/might be Nazi sympathizers, and go ahead be mad at them please, but just know that Wikipedia has already dealt with them days before you even saw that they existed. I don't think it's okay for people to be Nazi sympathizers or for them to have a platform to speak from. I also don't think that the people you're criticizing are Nazi sympathizers.
Then unless there is there is some technically complex process by which Wikipedia articles are put up for review that I don't know about it, your contention is with a single user. That individual is not reviewing every single new person article created and applying their fully discrete interpretation of Wikipedia's policy universally. And shame on them.
Be serious, any human language law/policy/rule managed with human interpretation cannot be applied without an element of bias. Assuming an adequate judicial process, the worst consequence of a flag->review is an issue not being flagged. If we're talking about meat-space laws for humans, then yeah you have to be more careful with false flags (arrests) because there are consequences to a human for that action. But if someone inappropriately flags a Wikipedia page for Review what are you going to do? Hurt its feelings?
except, the policy isn't being applied selectively? The page was kept. Do you think that every Wikipedia editor agrees with you on the notability of Yaroslav Hunka? Because it only takes one for there to be a discussion and a couple idiots to provide fuel for the rage-bait. But it takes an overwhelmingly large number of Wikipedia editors to disagree with you, specifically, for this to be a Wikipedia problem
do you think you're disagreeing with me? Or did you just want to bring up a fun fact?
I don't think you read what I said, people here are complaining about "deleting" or "white-washing" history to push a narrative. Which is not what happened, they were simply deciding whether or not new content on the site met their moderation standards. I'm struggling a bit to parse the the discussion's chronology, so I don't know exactly who initiated the deletion process or why, but one user cited [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#People_notable_for_only_one_event](this policy regarding notability) which sounds like grounds enough to initiate a discussion.
I have not made any claims regarding if he deserves a Wikipedia page or not, I am simply defending their right to moderate their content.
If the result of that moderation was that the page was not created, and you wanted to be mad about that, by all means feel free. But if you're going to be mad because an OP told you to be with incredibly verifiable information, and you chose not to make that verification. Then I think you're stupid and I don't like you.
An important factor that I think a lot of people are missing here, is that the page was created 5 days ago. Nobody is talking about deleting a page because they just now decided they didn't like the guy, they are talking about whether or not the page was worth creating in the first place.
Obviously now Wikipedia has decided to keep the page, but seriously guys try putting a little effort into dodging the rage-bait.
