Wikipedia does not report facts for journalistically relevant events. It documents journalistic "reactions".
"Newspaper X wrote Y" is factually true if newspaper X indeed wrote Y and NOT if Y is true.
This in combination with the fact that they (who?) decides which newspapers are accepted, makes Wikipedia very much a propaganda tool when it comes to politically relevant topics and events.
They do the "selecting and omitting" to support a narrative all the time.
