BIAS AND MISINFORMATION ON WIKIPEDIA
It is unfortunate that even sources such as Wikipedia have been hijacked by certain interest groups seeking to promote their ideology, agenda, and propaganda, such as the Indo-european ("Aryan") and Persian-Iranian supremacists who seek to impose their biased pseudo-scientific views and exclude opposing views relating to the Turanian peoples in many Wikipedia articles (see examples: Turkic World and Turan).

Recently, I've been looking to get a GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) complaint to be filed to the data protection authorities (DPA) in Europe against Wikipedia, because for so many years Wikipedia has been doxxing* many people they branded as "long term abusers (LTA)" without regard to their privacy and safety, as they listed sensitive details such as IP addresses, real names, locations and in some cases off-site social profiles and habits. Especially there's a case where a LTA doxpage was spawned following an edit conflict with strong political undertones and under murky circumstances which placed the victims in danger from rogue nations such as Russia and China. By now I've contacted the NOYB, which is an Austrian digital rights organization, in order to get the DPAs in Europe to take action and force Wikipedia to shut down and remove those LTA doxpages, especially that one which puts the victims in danger from Russia and China. NOYB replied back and while agreeing with my assessment that Wikipedia's LTA doxpages constitutes a GDPR violation, they can only file a tip-off instead of a proper complaint (which is more effective IMO) unless I can find anyone who's been victimized by Wikipedia's systemic doxxing of editors they branded as "LTA" to act as complainant/plainitiff for the case. By chance I had discovered that you are seemingly victimized by Wikipedia that way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/Tirgil34 ... Wikipedia has doled out a so-called "cruel and unusual punishment" against you which could jeopardize your privacy and safety as long as the doxpage is not taken down. For example, those wingnuts could weaponize the information and from there, escalate to real-life harassments. After all, as someone who had been in touch with many former Wikipedia insiders (including one who had a yet-to-be-published book against Wikipedia), I know of some cases where corrupt editors and administrators abused their power to harass their targets both online and in real life. The notorious Anvil email might be one such example: https://archive.ph/rkFao". *Doxxing is a form of cyberbullying that uses sensitive or secret information, statements, or records for the harassment, exposure, financial harm, or other exploitation of targeted individuals.
