Wikipedia is not a challenge to the system. If it were, it would be excluded from search results, much like blogs are now.

This became obvious to me when from 2023-2025 they refused to call it anything other than "Israel-Hamas war"

It's since been renamed to "Gaza genocide", as it should have been all along - but it took forever to get there.

This is because of their policy of only mirroring what mainstream media outlets are saying.

It’s the only “genocide” in history where the population being genocided grew during their genocide.

this is not correct

Are you disputing that Gaza had more births than reported deaths during this period, or do you have other examples of “genocides” where the population grew during their genocide?

Funny how you led with a desire to get Wikipedia to align with one side in a conflict, and an opposition to the “mainstream” having no diversity of opinion in your view, yet the moment you are confronted with alternative viewpoints and facts you refuse to engage with the content, and instead try to silence views that you don’t like.

This tells us more about your bias then Wikipedia bias, observe that WWII and Bosnian War have their own Wikipedia articles regardless of any genocide occurring in them.
