  • This whole thing is just so incomprehensiblely stupid and real world usage numbers prove it:

    According to Wikimedia Statistics, Cebuano Wikipedia currently reels in tens of thousands of page views from the Philippines each month.

    English Wikipedia, meanwhile, gets more than 100 million Filipino viewers per month.

    If people wanted AN AUTOMATED TRANSLATION they could just go to the English page and use one of the many free page translation tools that exist. Who even asked him to do this? Or is it just more white saviour complex?

    What an embarrassingly stupid waste of money. Gene editing tropical plants so that they can grow in other climates or common plants to be more pest/drought resistant would improve the lives of billions of people yet time and money is being wasted on this crap.
