Poland is marking the 80th anniversary of massacres committed by Ukrainian nationalists during World War II, possibly endangering its relationship with Kyiv and fuelling Russian propaganda.
One thing I have noticed in Wikipedia, is how the occurrence of the word ‘nazi’ has decreased on the Ukraine page since the war began, and sections on Azov have become more neutered. I would really like to do an in depth analysis on this, because it does appear that the page has been sanitised.
Interesting observation. I really wish anything we see could be trusted regarding the war rn, but fog of war is one hell of a thing. Let’s hope we will see everything that propaganda has pushed after the war is over.
‘Wikipedia’ is just the platform. This would not be the first time pages have been edited to push a narrative.
All of the sources I checked in the early page versions on ‘nazi’ and ‘azov’ were from Western/US media, so you can hardly say it’s ‘Russian propaganda.’
What actually is happening (I believe) is that the page has been edited since, to put Ukraine in a more favourable light so they gain more support in the war.
This could well be pushed by the US and not Ukraine, to continue the Russia vs US narrative, with Ukraine being just another pawn.

Wikipedia strives for a neutral point of view. Anyone going on about ‘nazis’ in Ukraine and their Jewish president is pushing a Russian POV.
Russian propaganda is slowly being excised.
Azov are Nazis. That’s a fact.
