Wikipedia is a website where ANYONE can edit and join. If you see inaccuracies, then correct them, and get others to help and correct them. If you give up you might as well declare that “reality has a liberal bias.”

And besides, no serious academic should use Wikipedia, anyways. As said before, it’s great as an introduction to things, but it’s best not to be overused. And it doesn’t just have a left-wing bias at times. Articles about subjects such as the Rape of Nanking or the Armenian Massacre are deeply divided between nationalistic sides. Such disputes transcend left-right divisions.

Yea, but isn't it more fun to inject inaccuracies, especially funny or really devious ones?

It’s an encyclopedia. No one who has graduated the 6th grade seriously uses encyclopedias as a reference for academic work. :p
