Dude, it’s Wikipedia… How are you not getting it? I linked you a Wikipedia article about bias on Wikipedia as a joke

So then what’s the basis for the second article? That people editing wikipedia pages are in an edit war over the atrocities of the nazis? That it’s longterm and ordained by wikipedia themselves? Elaborate.

The basis for the second article is that there is thousands of Nazis on Wikipedia, seemingly writing barely-challenged lies. The point of the second article is that Wikipedia has a nazi problem, which leads to it having a right-wing bias.
I don’t believe it’s some sinister plot by Wikipedia, but it is a fact that it is an issue wikipedia has. It is the downside to the “everyone is an editor” format which the site makes use of

The two things just seem to undermine each other, but that aside, I hope the other sources will do, whatever your criteria is for a good source.
