I can confirm as a longtime editor that: 1) I find this shit funny as hell in the short term, but 2) It does make our work harder. 3) If you really need to take a screenshot for the meme, please at least just use the VisualEditor, which is a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) editor that will allow for a near-identical screenshot without actually publishing. If it's not perfectly identical, you can go to the source editor and click 'Preview', which will actually render an identical page without publishing. 4) We really do take neutrality seriously – not primarily for our image but because, empirically, not doing that destroys the quality of the project.

    Alternatively you can also right click, press Inspect, and then edit the HTML, which will look perfect and also not actually change anything.

If it’s not perfectly identical, you can go to the source editor and click ‘Preview’, which will actually render an identical page without publishing. Or just press F12 and edit stuff right there.

    > We really do take neutrality seriously Well, semi-seriously. In the Russian-language wikipedia it is forbidden to talk of Ukraine as an independent country. I don't consider that terribly neutral. (They did have a vote about this, and because the Russian-language Wikipedia has more users from the Russia than from other countries, the Russian "opinion" about this won the vote. But it's absolutely not neutral anyway and with such a rule in place, it's ridiculous to claim that Wikipedia is really neutral. It is neutral-ish, though, yes.)
