"The academic community must confront an uncomfortable truth: we have systematically failed our greatest knowledge commons […], the only major platform on which truth emerges through transparent debate, rather than algorithmic opacity or corporate interests."
Really delighted to welcome @adamharangozo.bsky.social to LSE @lselibrary.bsky.social as our new *Wikimedian in Residence* and research visibility champion - crucial roles for raising awareness and understanding of #SocialScience #SHAPE in a world where trusted (and trust in) #research is crucial.
Delighted to share that we have appointed @adamharangozo.bsky.social as Wikimedian in Residence & Research Visibility Champion at @lselibrary.bsky.social. Our exciting new venture will raise awareness & understanding of social science, support open scholarship and develop training resources.
Prologue was Béla Tarr's contribution to the Visions of Europe anthology. Shot in 2004, the same year Hungary joined the EU, it's a sobering one-shot look at what "being European" really means, at the hollowness where there should be a beating heart.
Wiki entries on medical & health-related topics are generally accurate & reliably sourced. However, other aspects aren’t so straightforward. Adam Harangozó shares insights from his experience as Wikimedian In Residence at the National Institute for Health & Care Research:

Proud to have co-facilitated the workshop for this with @tatjana-baleta.bsky.social The resulting article is the work of a great group of experts, enthusiastic about sharing important climate change and health info on Wikipedia.

Very harmful practice. One person dies (who stopped taking the meds) so millions need to be scared about a side effect emphasised in the patient leaflet. How many people who might need help won't trust SSRIs as a result? Also, shouldn't @theguardian.com have put this in a more critical frame?
