Huh?

on his wiki. he had a section about his abuse claim against lucy. it was deleted, and in turn, they inserted how he is a registered republican but voted for the green party

Boogie was a super liberal when it was the popular thing on the internet. With the recent rise of alt-right shit and having money, Boogie has changed a lot in his politics. He is going to keep flip flopping and aiming at the center as much as he can to keep everyone happy.

Even if he voted republican, he wouldn't admit it

does anyone find it suspicious that the person who made this deletion has a username ending with "1138" which is only two digits removed from "1488"?

CORRECTION: Just noticed some of the references are incorrectly formatted/attributed. It's actually 17 of the 31 (54%) are references to YouTube videos. Honorable mention to 6 Boogie tweet references, making ~74% of the references WP:SELFSOURCE.

Someone should flag those seventeen sources for the same reason. #Justice4Lucy

He voted for Jill Stein lmao

They're using the excuse that the only source is Youtube so it doesn't count. Even though the sources for the majority other information is also from Youtube. Seems there is a bias here with whoever is editing the page, and they are biased towards protecting Boogie's reputation for whatever reason.

That's funny, they use Twitter for sources all the time. Why the bias against direct YouTube sources?

Now when they beg for donations I'm going to ignore it even harder.

In addition to what u/HaberdasherA said, the page hasn't been locked (meaning anyone is still free to contribute to it) however since my post a couple people have tried to reinstate the section only for others to come along to enforce its removal. Constantly reverting reverts is bad form so those involved really should take it to the page's Talk page (a meta page where people can discuss suggestions or resolve problems relating to the Article page) rather than argue in the comments of edits. Although it's probably not worth the effort as one of the people that enforced the removal of the section has decided to nominate the entire page for deletion. Something that feels likely to happen as over 70% of the references are self-sourced (i.e. from Boogie's YouTube and Twitter) which, while tolerated for the occassional point, can be seen as an indication of the topic lacking notability as reputable secondary sources are prefered.
UPDATE: The page is now semi-protection for 24hrs which restricts who can contribute.

That's kind of the pro and con of Wikipedia. The rules are more a set of guidelines and how strrictly they're enforced is down to how much of an ego trip those involved are on. In this case it looks like the original page avoided deletion as someone took the effort to add sources and those involved saw that as good enough reason to leave it alone.

Looks like Boogie is running away from the truth again.
Pity that's the only running I see him doing.

Damn they really removed his controversy section. Anyone got a screencap

You can just look at a historic revision.

Someone removed it lol

Looks like the editors have already stubified his article. Well, good thing the page was archived (more backups)
2
Apparently a person's own words isn't good enough citation? I'm sure we can get an article published and cite it "for real."

I knew Boogie would call in a favor and have that censored eventually. He was pissed when it first was added to his page. He mentioned it on stream and said something like "you know I can just have that edited out, right?"
Hah. I never heard him say that. You gotta clip that shit, bro.
It was 1 or 2 days after the Lucy video was released. He was playing wow in what appeared to be the wetlands going in and out of a dwarven structure. Thats when he said it.
Based on that description think I got it.
