An encyclopedia calling an article ridiculously detailed is... interesting.
Kinda burying the lede on that complaint......
Wikipedia cares more about bias than* ridiculous details, especially when the ridiculous detail is there to put bias into the article
I read it as adding a bunch of superfluous details that were biased.
What is the difference between including ridiculous amounts of detail to bias the article, and superfluous biased details that still end up with a biased article?
Seems like a distinction without a difference.
I didn't imply those were different, I don't get your point.
I think their point was that since he got Russian government permission to use Russian gov media, and he wrote a very detailed (although very biased in favour of Russia) article, then they think he is receiving assistance from the russian government to push Russian propaganda.
reads almost like it's talking about the situation at hand having been extensively and thoroughly documented to the point of it being impossible to "be wrong" to me
