At the intersection of postmodernism, racial essentialism, decentralization, and truth decay, identity is problematized. In the case of VP Nominee Harris, the logs show the dynamic tensions. “...at 4:42 p.m., a user named Eee302 changed Harris’s first name from “Kamala” to “Cuntala.” Another editor noticed and reversed the change within two minutes, banning Eee302 “because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.” But in that two-minute span, Google’s busy web crawlers had visited the page—meaning, for a brief time, “Cuntala Harris” was a top search result for anyone searching for the woman just named to the Democratic ticket. A Wikipedia administrator then turned on a “semi-protected” feature that limited who could edit Harris’s page, which headed off further major vandalism—and moved debate to the article’s “talk” page, where editors can hash out their differences. There the activity shifted to a single core question: Is Kamala Harris an African American?”

Zvikorn, whose bio on the site describes an Israeli teen into sports history, has made more than 2,300 edits to Wikipedia articles over the past few years. “The main reason I edit Wikipedia is a strong belief that every person on the planet has the right to access the accumulated knowledge of humanity,” he wrote. “Today it is only getting more important for mankind to find out the truth and not be exposed to believe fake news.”.. amazingg edit 2000 more

That discussion started vigorously a week ago, when Harris was just a much-talked about likely running mate.

Once the news broke, many of the first edits to Harris’s Wikipedia page were the sort of structural maintenance done by veteran editors on the site: citing sources, attaching categories, improving captions, and adding a notice that Harris was “a person involved in a currentP event,” and as such, “information may change rapidly as the event progresses.” Someone clarified that, until she’s officially nominated at the Democratic convention next week, Harris is still only the “presumptive vice-presidential nominee.” Grammar was improved; typos were fixed.

This is help the lay person understand how WIKIPEDIA works in practice. Hint: it’s not an anarchy! The piece also highlights how the encyclopedia foreshadows future political discourse

When the news broke, huge numbers of the first alters to Wikipedia page were such a basic upkeep done by veteran editors on the site: referring to sources, appending classifications, improving subtitles, and including a notification that Harris was "an individual associated with a current occasion," and all things considered, "data may change quickly as the occasion advances." Someone explained that, until she's authoritatively selected at the Democratic show one week from now, Harris is still just the "possible bad habit presidential candidate." Grammar was improved; grammatical mistakes were fixed.

There’s a weird echo of recent history here. In the 2008 election cycle and during his two terms as president, Barack Obama faced repeated false claims—most prominently advanced by Donald Trump—that he was not a real American, that his origin story was a fraud, that he was somehow a foreigner infiltrating the American body politic. In her first few hours as Biden’s running mate, Harris faced something analogous, both in conservative media and on online platforms: claims that she’s not really an African American.

“We went through this at length recently, and the consensus was ‘African-American’ and ‘South Asian-American,’” the editor Rklahn wrote. “Many points of view were represented, most of them being rehashed here. If we are now revisiting that consensus, please make that clear. Otherwise, please respect the work of the other editors who put a lot of thought into this issue.”

During the 2020 Democratic presidential essential, she marked herself as a "dynamic investigator" and moved left on issues like social insurance and environmental change. Be that as it may, the most intense hole is between her present informing on wrongdoing and her past.
