      You’ll be stopped by an over-controlling Wikipedia editor with seniority over you, who will revert any changes you make.

        I feel like the Wikipedia editor would be in the right here though.

    1: Don’t call it a dream, say it was revealed to you in a vision.

    2: Write a reddit post about this vision and cite other, somewhat similar sources that maybe can prove you correct.

    3: Wait for a slop newssite to pick up on the post and write out an entire article, will take 1 hour to 10 days depending on karma.

    4: Cite that slop article.
