I used to edit Wikipedia. I stopped for a number of reasons, but one of the major ones is that the culture was moving in a direction that I didn't like. I noticed several biases among Wikipedia editors that I found really annoying, and I still run across them when browsing Wikipedia. But there's one in particular I want to talk about: despite Wikipedia's extensive articles on Pokemon, the community's anti-pop-culture bias seems to be as strong as ever.
I typed "Frozen" into Wikipedia to look up the Disney movie. I expected either to get their directly, or for it to be at the top of the disambiguation page. However the disambiguation page only has the act of freezing as a suggestion of primary topics; you have to scroll down the disambiguation page and find it chronologically in the list of movies of the same title. So I figured "surely this is an ongoing dispute and someone is trolling," but the only talk on the page redirects to a move request.
The
move request points out that the Disney movie is 2.5 times more visited than all of the other pages with the name combined, and 4 times more visited than all other pages with the name not connected in some way to the movie. And yet, all of the responses oppose the move, claiming it's completely ridiculous and two people calling for an immediate close.
Seriously, it really annoys me how many Wikipedians are willing to make the website more of a pain to use either because of their own biases or as a result of overcorrecting for them.
