This seems somewhat important. Things, even major institutions in the internet, can be very generational. Never thought about that in terms of Wikipedia before.
I'm OK with the older tech nerds holding the reigns for awhile when we have the reality of tiktok zoomer broccoli heads everywhere living the social media based life of hollow clout-chasing and such. We need the nerds who know how shit works keeping the shit working in other words.
There are 'clout chasers' everywhere in all generations. States, companies and officials all try to edit their Wikipedia pages. I saw an example on my lemmy feed just yesterday.
