@slime Polish Wikipedia is mostly useless outside of very strictly Poland-specific topics and has very clear right-wing conservative male-led bias

@rail_ @slime it's one of the things I dislike/fear the most on Wikipedia. That my mistakes proliferate to other languages where I don't see or can correct them.
Some time back there was a special action group to correct bias on non-English climate change articles but it's probably like that with most subjects

@jeder @eloy @slime ah yeah it used to be a fun game a while ago to compare articles about known gay figures on EN and PL Wikipedia
PL articles were much more likely to either not mention it at all or be very avoidant of the topic and use euphemisms to describe it ("they were roommates" kind of shit lmao)
It seems to be a bit less common these days I think?

@bl00d @eloy @rail_ @slime pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgina_Beyer this one is also fun, there's some guy insistent on using transsexual instead of transgender because it's still there "in current sources of the article"
