I assume Wikipedia is protesting because it directly affects them. I don't see how it's problematic to advocate for themselves sometimes.

- krageon 8y agoBecause it is expected that they are as neutral as possible. People should advocate for encyclopedias, but they should not have opinions themselves. That impression can be argued to be wrong, of course.
- silvester23 8y agoWell, it is explicitly stated in the linked statement that > “Wikipedia’s articles are neutral, [but] its existence is not.” You might disagree with that position, but if you expect Wikipedia as a platform to be neutral, you have not been paying attention.
