Seems that Wikipedia would like editors to not insert their own interpretations, at least not directly, and that's being applied overzealously

This is their policy, you need "reliable" secondary sources that interpret and explain things. This is unfortunate because all "reliable" secondary sources are garbage these days.

It's such an obvious gatekeeping move. "The new-ish thing you're writing about hasn't been written about enough already by state media, so references to its own documentation aren't tolerated". If you can't write a wiki about it, it's harder for others to learn about it, thus harder for "non-primary" sources to write about it, thus harder to provide citations that wikipedia gestapo approve. nice and circular. The lines are drawn. Probably better to just stay outside them and flash the middle finger to the pearl-clutchers standing inside as you Exit. View quoted note →
