Honestly when it comes to Chinese topics on Wikipedia, its very bad. Wikipedia is banned in China. So by default, you have 1.5B people who could contribute cut off from editing it. You are basically relying on HK/TW/Western sources to act in good faith which is not feasible. The English version is much worse than the Chinese version since many topics are missing.

Well, Baidu Baike is massive kind of "Wiki", over 30M articles and over 8M registered contributors. Wiki English ~6.8M articles and "only" 100K active contributors

"Distrust in local forces". It's the Abbasi era all over again. Arabs never learn.

This unverified. you think UAE leader is that inexperianced to tell such things. Saudi have problem with ineffective use of Hard Power due to there past experiance. Now they may have additional problems with UAE economy benefiting Indians and Iranians which may interfere with creation of new Europe. I can bet even Putin is with Saudi but his approach using soft Power and delegate hard power to Israelis. result is suboptimal.

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia is transforming itself into a nice city. There's definitely some Chinese vibe to it. The multi-bulb street lamps and LED building facade feels very Chinese.

Addis Ababa is a complete opposite to the capital city of a certain Supapowar who had wanted to claim leadership of the Global South. A clear example of quiet, but tangible progress versus loud, but hollow rethoric.

Applaud this attempt but ultimately Wikipedia is the culmination of western propaganda (which is obvious enough if you look at their "reliable sources" list). A "free world" public toilet built upon layers upon layers of brainrot and vibe in the west. It's kind of futile trying to fight that without changing the whole "free internet" outside of GFW. No need to do charity work for the retarded masses in the west.

Which also reminds me how hilarious It is when the people usually at the receiving end of this whole propaganda machine (middle easterners, western "leftists" etc) use Wikipedia as a source just for vibe to masturbate online. It's pretty bleak not gonna lie. But again, only people who have freed themselves from this whole western worldview/logic can progress, maybe one day people of the world will see the light. Before that, China is the only hope.

I thought it was already well known since 20 years ago that Wikipedia is only a reliable source for information on the 1980’s Transformers cartoons and the X-Files TV show

i always found it strange, how they use the NYT as a primary source whenever they talk about anti-china stuff like uyughur genocide even tho none of the articles have any level of proof that this "genocide" was happening, like no sources at all but somehow wikipedia always acted like they were professional journalistic sources with clear undeniable evidence.

in my opinion wikipedia is only good for learning about STEM things because the moment you touch history, its always going to be some liberal source even though countless books have been written about [insert historical subject] which are way better sources then a NYT article.
