Wikipedia's article on Lightning is so thin.

Like imagine you were to write about use cases for Lightning, and this is what you decide to write:

We are still so early.

It's very hard to make bitcoin-related edits on Wikipedia. That whole site is guarded by nocoiner trolls.

Maybe. But they also require citations from sources that aren't too inside baseball. And it can't read like an advertorial.

It might be possible to expand it a bit with citations from large MSM and peer reviewed papers. The latter could be more focused on topology, routing and other academic yet practically useful stuff. E.g. https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.05322 but it has to be published somewhere.

wtf 😬

Dokkodo......and Satoshi.... 21 is everywhere... Bitcoin is the Way

What are some good things to add there?

A good place to start would be Sam Wouter’s Lighting Report from River Financial.

Lightning torch, El Salvador( Bitcoin Beach Wallet, Chivo).

Blockstream offered stickers over lightning at the start when people were figuring it out

Going through the implementations and the teams behind them could be fun. (Eclair, LND, CLN) Or the lesser known implementations (electrum, immortan) and further on with LDK

Establishment of standards (BOLT11/12, LNURL/Lightning Address, dual-funded channels) 🤔

Contribute more to it 🙏

you mean on wikifreedia?

We need to create a new Wikipedia

nostrpedia

today I read about it. Now I can say I have technical understanding of it.

Every time I use it, I get asked to make a donation, I will do it when they will accept lining network ⚡️

🤦🏻‍♀️

we're early as Fuk

Nothing to see here people, it’s just the crypto people having fun with their cute tech stuff..

Wow!

Can’t anyone edit the text/information?

weird. my trust in wiki has sunk even lower.

You should have seen the Wikipedia Bitcoin wars with a guy David something.

It was nuts. It's amazing it's even there still.

Why don’t people add to it then? Are there moderators pushing back?

Yes Wikipedia is hostile to “crypto-sources” big time. When much of the history of Bitcoin early days is in Bitcoin Talk and the editors won’t allow linking to 🥲
