     @drak That's a far bigger problem than just relevant to one poitical group and it's not just on one side of the political spectrum (feminist wikipedia editing parties exist). And once you have wikiepdia editing parties there's only two ways…

     That’s what I said to the starter, and he said he’d keep an eye out on other groups to be able to put the results into perspective.

     From the description ("to generate coverage of women") this is in line with the goal of wikipedia and thus no problem.

     oh, yes, it seems possible to misunderstand that … well, plausible. Even probable. … sorry — that wasn’t intentional.

     @drak It doesn't really matter what they put in their description though.
     What matters is if the shit they post on wikipedia is true and I think annoying communities edit warring their way to the top isn't a great strategy for posting true shit.

     whether it’s a good strategy depends on whether there are other groups who revert true edits and whether there’s another way to stop that.

     whether it’s good for wikipedia overall is a very different question. I personally experienced the speedy deletion of articles about several very widely used free software projects, so I think there already are groups with many different goals who fight over control of Wikipedia.
