Editing Wikipedia as self-care activism

Do people just knee-jerk react to stories here after reading the title only? The &quot;self-case activism&quot; she talks about is adding wikilinks, adding info she just researched, and expanding a Wikipedia article. The only political things she mentioned at all were her own interests in African Diaspora and LGBT topics which she contributes to in order to &quot;help this world become a more equal place&quot;. It is extremely common for Wikipedia editors to contribute in their areas of interest; in fact there are WikiProjects set up specifically to facilitate that. [0] What she isn&#x27;t doing is adding bias, but helping to address Wikipedia&#x27;s systematic bias by adding to those areas. [1] Not going around injecting bias into articles as the comments here are saying. (And even that is valuable in itself because Wikipedia is meant to be written from a neutral point of view, which requires that articles &quot;fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources&quot; [2])<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:WikiProject_Directory" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:WikiProject_Director...</a><p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:Systemic_bias" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:Systemic_bias</a><p>[2]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view#Due_and_undue_weight" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_vie...</a>

This is barely an acceptable behavior. You&#x27;re supposed to use a neutral point of view when editing Wikipedia. As this editor publicly admits she&#x27;s editing Wikipedia as a form of activism for her political views, she at least declares her <i>intent</i> to have a political effect while editing.<p>She may manage to make edits that remain neutral, but still the whole attitude is edgy.<p>There are many good reasons to be willing to edit Wikipedia, and politics is not one of them.

Wikipedia is a public information source, not a psychotherapy tool. People who are emotionally invested in the edits they&#x27;re making hurt the quality of Wikipedia.

I find the whole of wikipedia skewed with all sorts of &quot;activism&quot;. I find it sad how many people rely on it for information.

At what point do minority groups become proportionally overrepresented because of this kind of behavior?
