These are the specific accusations from the Grayzone: https://thegrayzone.com/2020/06/10/wikipedia-formally-censors-the-grayzone-as-regime-change-advocates-mono

  I thought the Grayzone ban was interesting too. There is always the option of leaving it up to editors, and/or explicitly attributing any opinions or fact claims so the reader can see where they come from. However, I wonder how much the Wikimedia Foundation as the solicitor and recipient of reader donations has to do with it. For all its faults, the Wikimedia Foundation does not edit Wikipedia directly (its own article, i.e. the Wikipedia article on the Wikimedia Foundation, is crap for example, because they won't edit it and nobody else really cares to). So a decision like banning Grayzone is down to the volunteer editors that congregate around a topic area rather than the Foundation. (Grayzone is a curious case because the Blumenthal family has close links to the Clintons, and so does the Wikimedia Foundation, because some of the consultancy firms listed as major suppliers in their Forms 990 (Williamsworks, Minassian Media and Trilogy Interactive) are run by people with close personal ties to the Clintons.)
