Or perhaps they just edit the chinese version of the wikipedia article to be more sympathetic. It's not like chinese don't know that tiananmen square happened. They just (generally) don't believe it was wrong. Also studying the event, it's pretty grey in general. The west's portrayal of it is not without bias.

"They just (generally) don't believe it was wrong." That's not exactly true. The deeper issue is that the Party wants the people to forget the incidence or make it look trivial and insignificant, so that any discussion about right or wrong does not even surface. In fact, there isn't much that the Party needs to do about it nowadays. The population is literally drowned in entertainment, amusing themselves to death, which is part of the reason the government can start to repurpose the GFW towards protectionism.
