I haven’t participated in wikipedia enough to see how these turf wars play out. I’ve heard that, unsurprisingly, there are groups that control pages, some opposed and some unopposed. It’s a really interesting thing to me.
I’m afraid of politics, generally speaking. But I bet it would be interesting to be a part of all that.
Except there are defacto central authorities governing certain pages.

And certain politicians
Which religious orgs?
Probably all of them… Just a guess though.
