I was amazed just how actively negative credentialism could be - Shirky posited it as merely putting a dead weight on the project, not actually driving it backwards. Did anyone actually predict it would result in CZ becoming a crank magnet? If anyone wanted to advocate credentialism on Wikimedia projects, they'd first have to work out how to fix the pseudoscience problem on CZ. - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
