sockpuppets 

Wikipedia has always been biased, starting from the top (Jimbo Wales ran an Ayn Rand mailing list for years, said "[Friedrich] Hayek’s work...is central to my own thinking about how to manage the Wikipedia project." etc.) on down, it used to pretend it was fair and balanced though.  I was accused for years of having sock puppets.  As things went downhill here (or uphill from their perspective), they began checking into the accusations of the wing nuts that I had sock puppets, and repeatedly found nothing.  Finally, things degenerated to the point where David Gerard, who has checkuser privileges, claimed I was someone named User:Mr. Know-It-All.  I have no association with Mr. Know-It-All, but even that aside, there is no rule on Wikipedia that you can't have multiple accounts.  So he claimed we had voted on multiple RFA's together, and due to that I was put on probation.  Well, a simple comparison of two pages of the RFA's I and he voted on can be done, and it can be seen that his claim there were multiple RFA's the two accounts voted on is false, or that Me and Mr. KIA ever voted on the same RFA ever, not even one, never mind the multiple he said happened.  The rules say he had to post the links in the page, but since the links did not exist, since the charge was false, that didn't happen.  So they broke their own rules of prosecution, presenting no evidence, and then convicted me on a charge where anyone comparing two pages in the space of a minute can see is false.  Of course my pointing this out before the case was closed was completely ignored.  Basically, I followed the rules but they didn't like my politics so I was punished for that.  The leaps of logic where strange too - I tried to point out that the US supported the "Khmer Rouge" after 1979, which somehow made me responsible for everyone who died in Cambodia prior to 1979.  And that sort of thing.

Wikipedia is what it is, thinking you can fix it is like thinking you can fix Fox News by leaving comments in their web site comments section before they're erased.  Demopedia and dKosopedia or something of that ilk might become an alternative.  If Wikipedia was run by a normal person it might have things centralized, but porn magnate turned Friedrick von Hayek Randroid Jimbo Wales is not that person.
