I noticed there was no criticism section on Wikipedia (Hackerspaces has that section). Looking at this comment being downvoted.. Can anyone explain why men sheds should not be critisized?

The absence of a criticism section on a Wikipedia page has nothing to do with whether or not the subject of that page should be criticised..

It is notably missing

Men only spaces is very inflammatory subject. Bomb threads, SWATing, and so on.. It also leads to uncomfortable questions about women only spaces.

I am not surprised Wikipedia avoids this section.

> Bomb threads, SWATing, and so on..

You do not appear to have anything rational to add on the subject of Men's Sheds in Australia.

Do you have any evidence of bomb threats or SWATing wrt to Men's Sheds in Australia?

No direct evidence for Mens Sheds of Australia. I have a long list for in US and Europe. We can start with Erin Pizzey, and why she left UK!

Is SWATing even much of a thing outside the US? I get the feeling you are trying to hijack the thread.
