Wikipedia is a helpful website.
The problem is that they are trying to replace all other information.
And they are very biased.
RT:
Wikipedia has become “increasingly anti-Russian” during the past decade and its policy has worsened substantially since the start of the conflict in Ukraine a year ago, a former editor at the Russian-language version of the online encyclopedia has claimed.
“Participants with pro-Russian views were blocked, articles about Russian achievements were deleted,” from the platform over the past nine years, Arseny Natapov told the BRIEF channel on Telegram on Tuesday.
In 2014, a violent coup in the Ukrainian capital Kiev led to Crimea’s reunification with Russia and the outbreak of conflict in Donbass. This provoked a spike in tensions between Moscow and the West, which imposed sanctions on Russia and intensified Western military buildups near its borders.
Soon, these tensions were reflected online and Wikipedia was believed to have adopted an anti-Russia posture, and this, the former editor pointed out, deteriorated even further in late 2021, shortly before the launch of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine.

For a long time the reins at the Russian Wikipedia were in the hands of editors that held pro-Russian views but now they’ve been pushed out by “pro-Western and liberal members,” he said.
It’s probably a myth that the writers of history in history were more devoted to the truth.
Probably, this degree of bias is the norm, and that’s how we ended up with bullshit like “the Holocaust.”
Wikipedia is BIASED.
It calls Trump’s border facilities “concentration camps.”
To test editors’ neutrality, I added that Obama built the camps.
Editors then went back-and-froth DOZENS of times, restoring & deleting my edit.
It’s currently deleted.
