Right, and Wikipedia leadership is free of any conflicts of interest:

During and after her Wikimedia role, Maher drew fire for statements perceived as rejecting objective truth or Wikipedia’s traditional “free and open” model:

• In a 2021 TED Talk, she described reverence for truth as potentially a “distraction” hindering common ground.

• She called Wikipedia’s free-and-open ethos a “white male Westernized construct” that excluded diverse communities.

But she’s not the one writing and editing the wiki pages. It’s open, and there are open discussions as well. What’s it matter what she thinks?

Why would I ever trust an encyclopedia totally controlled by one megalomaniac over one that I myself can contribute to?
