“can you tell me where the problems are with those items...”

I’ll tell you two things wrong with the article on Mao after just a glance.

Nowhere in the opening paragraphs do the words “mass murderer” or “child molester” appear, and those are the first two things anyone should learn about that POS.

Actually, Wikipedia has been lurching left more and more. I noticed several pieces where criticisms or pertinent facts just disappear.

It seemed like a good idea, until the Controllers took over.

Just like the MSM.

You were saying ...

Nowhere in the opening paragraphs do the words “mass murderer” or “child molester” appear, and those are the first two things anyone should learn about that POS.

Someone mentioned that earlier (regarding killing millions), and it was reported in the third paragraph. I checked it and it is there. You can see the comments, up above, on that one. I don't know about child molester, because I didn't look for that. I'll have to go back and search it. But, it shouldn't be surprising, as any dictator is usually quite decadent, too.

But, for comparison's sake, what sources are listed with that information. I mean, comparable with Wikipedia -- like Encyclopedia Britannica for instance, or Funk and Wagnalls (maybe). Do you have a reference in those cases (or another encyclopedia)? I haven't looked in Conservapedia... does it have Mao listed with that... then?

As I said, I would like to compare other sources and see what they say in regards to what Wikipedia says on it... like for like...

I'll look up on Conservapedia and get back to you on Mao as to what they say...

And also, what about the rest of the articles that I just listed... or is Mao the only problem one there, and in those two instances you mentioned?

I just went over to the conservative counterpart to Wikipedia -- Conservapedia -- and looked up Mao. And I found nothing there that mentions being a child molester. I did a search on those two words and nothing came back.

In addition, I looked up the information on being a mass murderer and all I find is it's not even mentioned until far down in the article. You can see how far down it is, from this list of "Table of Contents" of the article. It's under #5...

5 Mass murder
