I hope that @wikipedia and @wikimediafoundation would resist to this attempt of writing the history with the pen of the powerful, the colonizers and the aggressors. As we should make an effort of truth seeking, decency and honesty to block the attempts of Russian propaganda to rewrite the history of Ukraine on #Wikipedia, we should put the same effort to avoid the history of #Palestine written by the ones who bombed and invaded it, and their suppliers of weapons.

I did my civic duty reporting it in the page discussion with an edit request, but I doubt that the request will be accepted, as I see on the same discussion some MAGA trolls complaining that their ugly hero doesn't look so good on #Wikipedia pages.

I recently posted about archive.today (also archive.is, archive.ph, archive.fo, archive.li, archive.md, and archive.vn) using its archive links to launch a ddos attack against a blogger they accused of doxing them: https://mathstodon.xyz/@11011110/116028203974257264

That attack triggered #Wikipedia (at least, the English part) to discuss banning archive.today links, and the ensuing discussion turned up evidence that (as part of the same dispute with the same blogger) archive.today had also tampered with its archived content to falsify certain names in old archived links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Archive.is_RFC_5#Evidence_of_altering_snapshots

This led to a quick close of the discussion and a consensus to remove all archive.today links from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Archive.today_guidance
For the same reasons I have removed all archive.today links from my blog, where I had been occasionally using them as a convenient way to access paywalled content. I suggest that others remove their links as well, lest you unwittingly become part of additional ddos attacks and falsification.

#Wikipedia (in Italia) resta uno strumento spesso sottovalutato dai movimenti che si occupano di conservazione e memoria storica.
È una comunità che richiede dedizione, tempo e rigore — ed è proprio per questo che si finisce spesso per ripiegare sui social media, apparentemente più comodi e veloci.
Con grande piacere segnaliamo che Novanta di Mattioli — di cui non smetteremo mai di tessere le lodi — compare nella bibliografia di oltre 180 voci. E sfogliando quelle voci si scoprono cose davvero straordinarie ❤️
