    Some wikipedia articles have been edited by science/history deniers/fascists/liars and it is difficult to determine if whats written at any point is true or edited. Thats where the statement comes from.

      There have been some very long lived hoaxes on Wikipedia, but they’re basically the exception that proves the rule. Nothing is infallible.

      It’s never difficult. Wikipedia cites sources. It’s very easy to check if any piece of information has citations and what those citations are.
