Earlier quoted context omitted.
Possibly true, but its important that users are fully aware that the "Ministry of Truth" operates at times on Wikipedia; not everybody is.
> the "Ministry of Truth" operates at times on Wikipedia Please elaborate. Or, even better, link to examples.
Well, this whole discussion and article is about misinformation and "truth", and I'm not sure how I could add to my initial comment at the top of this thread, but - assuming you allow, as I intend - the "Ministry of Truth" is not necessarily a malevolent, intentional global entity, but rather an occasional artefact of the factors previously described by myself and others - bias, circular reasoning, gatekeeping, etc then there will always be a significant chance that it will naturally arise here and there where those influences are scaled by - say - demographic imbalances (eg. white, male, liberal, etc) in the sector in question (in this case some Wikipedia subjects; but it applies equally to real-world contexts where you might see other demographic imbalances, eg. academia, the police, army, public sector, startup culture, etc, etc).
For Wikipedia's own various discussions on the subject if you want to delve further, try:

Remember, none of these problems are necessarily intentional, it's just not as simple as implying Wikipedia is a special, neutral case free of those issues.
