On every article about a poltical event?
Even Jimmy Wales says it's "slightly more liberal than the U.S. population on average" when America is already fairly left wing, as if only Western Europe existed. Larry Sangar, wikipedia's other co-founder, also says it's left wing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideological_bias_on_Wikipedia
Said, in 2006. Sangar has clear bias against wikipedia due to being laid off. In what world is America left wing? Unless you mean from a cultural point of view rather than an economic one, America has a right wing government.
But America is like the most right wing developed country 🤔
That really depends on what you considered developed. Poland swung hard right after the fall of the USSR, for example. They aren't as developed as the UK or Germany or whatever, but I'd consider them developed.
Well, the very first place I noticed it was about 10 years ago on the Gamer gate article. Called it a harassment campaign when it was really a married game dev fucking journalists for good coverage. We always knew gaming journalism was corrupt, but it was nice to have proof. Also sucks for the husband who got cheated on. Next day, about 14 separate sites all come with the headline "Gamers are dead". Since then, either by confirmation bias or reality, I've been noticing a lot of bias in Wikipedia articles.

Okay, so you are just on the wrong side of Gamergate, got it
I mean when someone comes in with a bullhorn and says "I support gamergate" it's kind of nice to know you can block them now without having to get in an argument or stressing either of you out. You just know you won't get along.
