To me this is an important issue and I hope I can attend at least a lightning talk about it. I've been in a bunch of discussions about this, and one comment is that we would want a broader set of sources and analyses than the one essay. There are doubts about its analysis, but I did not dig into the details of that. (Will send details to the submitting author here.)

In any presentation on this, it might be good to summarize the Greenstein et al analysis which this critique addresses.

Bias and misinformation are related and they are important topics for this conference and future related conferences. Generally I/we don't want Wikimedia or its processes to be biased toward left-of-center views, but super informative and relatively neutral. I think we have a broad consensus on that but there is always risk. -- Econterms (talk) 17:22, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
