Talk:185: Wikifriends

I thought this was a reference to the WikiFriends group who defend WikiLeaks. I figured it was about intimidation. 184.66.160.91 02:52, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

That's impossible. The comic came out before Wikileaks even existed.120.148.234.14 22:01, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

So the group's name is a fork from this article title?Pacerier (talk) 13:13, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Actually, Wikileaks launched a month before the comic's publication date, if the above is accurate. Surely you guys remember them leaking the Bush administration's war crimes within the next year or so. —Kazvorpal (talk) 20:20, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

I have a completely different understanding of this comic than what's in the explanation here. Wiki is a site where anyone can change content and it's instantly visible - I think Randall meant that wikifriends are wiki because anyone can change their opinion on movies because they instantly adapt what others say. 141.101.89.217 14:52, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Re:

Isn't that exactly what the explanation on this page says?Pacerier (talk) 13:13, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

To me wikifriends were the kind of people that never start a edit war with you: Many scientists that add original research to Wikipedia immediately get followed by Wikipedia s that "have a different opinion here". Several of my friends stopped contributing to Wikipedia after such incidences and they say it is one of the factors that limits Wikipedia 's growth.--Gunterkoenigsmann (talk) 18:24, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
