This has always been happening, and will continue to happen

It was a single rogue editor, someone noticed and reported it, and now all their changes have been undone.

It is a credit to humanity that the internet archive & wikipedia are funded by donations.

Pro-Russian Narratives Target Wikipedia, Marking A Dangerous Trend for AI Chatbot Data

Okay and where is the proof for this in the article?

The only thing that's mentioned is that someone bulk corrected the birthplace country of some Estonian people to the Soviet Republic that existed at that time.

Where is the AI? Where is the Pro Russian narrative???

Was this article generated by AI?

This is one of the proofs. It's completely understandable in human psychology when people initially goes into denial after being confronted with something shocking like that, as seen in the reactions by many people to the recent partial disclosure of the Epstein Files.
