That is an issue, but the point with Wikipedia is to get a summary and then use the citations and references to check up on what was written.

While it’s possible they bring up good points in this video (I didn’t watch it), it’s very likely that some of these other “MSM” outlets are making those same points. Especially because there isn’t one monolithic “MSM”, and if you get out there you’ll find a lot of outlets reporting on things that a few biased outlets may not be.
