So, it would appear that there wasn't already a thread about this on here, so I'm getting one started. This is a general megathread for posting stupid shit that you found on Wikipedia, including stupid misinformation and stupid drama.
I'll get the thread started with a few examples. For one, this recent "Did you know..." box could almost pass for a parody:
The article about Jex Blackmore appears to have been fully created about a month ago. March 29th when was when it stopped being a redirect, and was mostly what it is today. This is clearly an astroturfed-in art project from someone who has no talent, no skill, and is likely mentally ill. In other words, perfect for Wikipedo. With that said, you can tell that even the 
s who wrote the article know that this person is batfrick insane.
Here's some more recent drama, in which self-professed neurodivergent anarcho-communist Dronebogus calls a columnist a "transphobic wackadoodle" (in blatant violation of Wikipedia's so-called rules against personal attacks), then gets another user permanently banned for making very light anti- comments:

Much like Le Rebbit, Wikipedia has been completely overtaken by mentally ill activists in recent years.
Wikipedia is primarily edited by the same kind of people who post on Reddit (i.e. porn-addicted neckbeards/s), and this screenshot of Wikipedia's examples of "multiracial people" speaks for itself:
There is always drama surrounding Wikipedia articles about internet trolls, whether it's regarding G*merGate, Kiwi Farms, imageboards, or anything else. Recently, Wikipedia purged all references to Kiwi Farms "targeting" far-right users. The Wikipedo jannies - many of whom, again, self-identify as communists - declared that catboy/Nick Fuentes criticism from Kiwi Farms users is only "infighting" because the trolls are all, of course, far-right themselves.

Needless to say, it's hard to keep the "internet trolls are all Nazis" illusion around if they mention facts to the contrary. Having the fact that Kiwi Farms keeps threads on the likes of Nick Fuentes and Richard Spencer be public knowledge opens people up to asking "but why would they be fighting other far-right people if they're far-right themselves?" and we definitely can't have that!

I periodically try get into wikipedia since I love neurodivergent
squabbling, but it's always such a landmine trying to get anything 
done and they have zero sense of an interested 
audience. You simply have to roll over if anyone gets too interested 
in fighting 
you or you end up banned, even if as in this user's case you have a decade long history, are inarguably in the right, and are willing 
to leave 
the issue at hand alone 
as long as the other guy doesn't win and smugpost.
All the old meta-articles are slowly rotting as people realise making notes
about how lame you all are doesn't amass political 
capital, but they're still quite fun to read as relics of a more civilised age.
A example of meta-r-sluration was when a few failed
academics (you can tell they failed 
because they edit wikipedia) decided fun word association wasn't rigorous enough. 
Everyone 
who supports this is a bigger pseud than the literal r-slurs who thinks the influences box says something profound:
