Congrats, fellow hero! I was working as a network engineer at the time of the Y2K problem. The last couple of years, from 1998 on, we worked many extra nights and weekends to fix everything. We worked every day to pour over every line of code with the old date format. We had to update every server and PC Bios and every piece of network equipment (every router, bridge and switch and even print servers and printers). On the last day of 1999, we were required to stay around the clock. After midnight, we monitored and rechecked all systems. It was all a success. We turned a potential catastrophe into a "nothing burger". You're welcome world.
I am really glad that projects like Wikipedia exist. It helps many people, particularly those from developing countries, to access information that previously was only accessible for few elites. Of course problems like credibility of sources exist because the information is crowdsourced, but Wikipedia is a good start to get into a topic.

5:41 "while there were some errors here and there once we hit 2000, nothing catastrophic unfolded. and the Year 2000 problem ended up being a big nothing burger." what an irresponsibly misleading thing to say. it makes it sounds like the concerned were unjustifiable hysteria. the reason it turned out to be a nothing burger is because of all the colossal amount of money and effort went into correcting technology to go through the change smoothly. not because It wAs a BiG nOtHiG BuRgEr. this kind of careless wording is how masses of ignorant fools ignore warnings and alarm raisers about legitimate issues that plague society. from climate change, to infectious outbreaks.
Wikipedia is vital to information as one can reference sources and check where things were cited to see the perspective rather than unified immediate truth at one place. Usually an article covers a zoomed out semi-pluralist view of perspective with biased where a critical thinker and reader could expect in the analysis section and outcome sections of events and individuals based on sociology, utility, consequentialism, and a gradually lessened anthropocentric view of what is and what was. The only thing Wikipedia needs is a tab changer based on philosophy and politics to highlight or even separate entire perspectives based on the writers/editors consistent history otherwise the random edits(most are from nerds with their own biases and get verified after alerts to others involved in the topic.) can randomly be referenced as such. Like a comment… It often provides the basis of how something or someone realistically came to being in historicity and different recognitions. Censorship in knowledge should be removed and almost entirely to the limits of debate as to allow logic and reasoning to filter information rather than just casting even bullshit aside. Today people seem to be losing the ability to sense bullshit and its not right to keep them away and blind from what needs to be understood themselves as true or false based on their philosophical values amd reasoning capabilities to actually LEARN. People don’t often find the right answer or exact truth at first. Wikipedia cant serve to do this, and it shouldn’t. It doesn’t seem to try either, it has just been as it has been and done what its done as a collective effort towards public information disquisition and exposition that is still slow and ineffective to the masses that want a quick answer to reference forever, outside and away from inherent comprehension of topics and any internal discussion with what can be read in both agreement and disagreement - in ones own inquisition of knowledge. But, fuck mods. Fuck overseers and underminers. Fuck meritocracy for sure, and fuck titular capability.

As long as this clown is keeping the term "SerboCroatian language", "Balkan peninsula" and West Balkans" on Wikipedia this will for me be a pseudosite. Croatian and Serbian are two close but distinctive languages (with many unique dialects) that both had their own distinctive development throughout approximately one millenia in poetry, laws, liturgy, different redactions from different respective dialects and so on. SerboCroatian was artificial creation for purpose of common language in Yugoslavia but it never had a real management because Yu-republics were using their different versions and even dialectal versions in different regions. In some cases Wikipedia is going all the way that this pseudo-language existed from middle ages. West Balkans doesn't exist because here are the Dinaric mountains while Balkan or Stara Planina is only on Bulgarian territory. That said Balkan peninsula doesn't exist in geographical term because the land line has to be approximately two times shorter than sea side lines and that here is not the case. Only Greece and Albania are technically on peninsula by geographic standards. If this three "political" agendas are axepted as normal thing because of some globalist interests to have this pseudoregion as one big state than what other bigger lies and interests are written in Wikipedia 🧐🤔
