    Just like russias mirror of wikipedia which is heavily edited to discredit the west.

    How come I live in Russia and have never seen such?

    I know only of quite a few troll\counterculture projects, some, like Lurkmore, are already, well, dead, some, like Traditsiya, are not.

    That, of course, if you don’t mean that Russian Wikipedia in itself has problems. Which would be true.

      It’s called Ruwiki.

      It was launched in June 24, 2023 as a fork of the Russian Wikipedia, and has been described by some media groups as “Putin-friendly” and “Kremlin-compliant”.
