What is the deal with posting (seemingly) random links to Wikipedia articles lately without context?
Some of them are interesting, but most(?) of them come without details.
Please provide me with some context.
- lukas099 3y agoThings hackers would find interesting. I think they have always been posted as long as I've been here.
- marklubi 3y agoThere is no context provided with any of these links. I'm not making any claims about whether or not they have interesting content. There's been a huge uptick in submissions of random Wikipedia articles where there is no context provided with them. There are maybe two or three in the last day that have anything beyond the title included. https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=wikipedia.org https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=wikipedia.org
