This month's @wikisignpost is out! thread of some of my favorite parts, starting with this interactive map that combines Wikipedia and Wikidata notability rankings to show the most notable person from any area tjukanovt.github.io/notable-people

I can't pick a favorite part of @iridiumzeppelin's writeup on the "Recession" article drama (which involved @elonmusk telling @jimmy_wales Wikipedia was "losing its objectivity"). here's a big screenshot of the intro. you should just click the article #Op-Ed" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia…

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost Coincidentally a fine infographic for that "theory" I always mention where The German Invasion (1.a) turned out opposite and everything pivoted to an American Kingdom with Greenland as the core.

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost This is *really* interesting, even if some of the people are extremely cringe (Hitler, Stalin, bin Laden, Mobutu, etc).

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost Ew Henrik Ibsen 🤢

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost I'm pretty sure Freddie Mercury's notability had far more to do with the UK than with wherever he happened to have been born. Wikipedians don't want to let loose of that particular form of POV-pushing.

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost I am fucking impressed at how accurate this gets at lower levels

@depthsofwiki @wikisignpost Why is there nothing in Morocco?
