News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Whenever Wikipedia is mentioned in hackernews, it's always the same comment. Have you got anything new to add, or any substantial argument to support your position? As it stands it's a pretty serious accusation and a pretty thin argument.

I've rarely seen this comment on hackernews about wikipedia. I think you may have been thrown off by the use of "liberal" to think it's a right-wing critique. Incidentally, the complaints I'm used to are that "they keep deleting the thing that I'm involved with that I think is notable" "they won't let me edit myself even though I'm an expert on myself" and "weird editors squat articles."

This is a "wikipedia is completely western and whiggish" critique.
