Look, I strongly dislike changing definitions for things as a result of one political party or another - but this concern re wikipedia is manufactured I think.

The wiki article on recession literally mentions two consecutive quarters of negative growth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recession https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recession
The history page even goes into whats going on behind the scenes with vandalism and the like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Recession#ATTENTION_NEW_VISITORS_TO_THIS_PAGE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Recession#ATTENTION_NEW_V...
Not to say that we shouldn't deride the changing definition in popular media, but wikipedia seems fine ?
