We’ve all been told to never trust Wikipedia articles but have you ever thought about who actually writes these articles? Well, it’s usually just a bunch of dedicated volunteers who are looking to make information more accessible but there’s a much darker side of Wikipedia as well: the black market. There are entire businesses built around the idea of writing Wikipedia articles for businesses and individuals. Theoretically, these businesses are simply supposed to help people navigate the tricky world of publishing on Wikipedia, but it’s likely that they help with much more than that. Many of these businesses aim to build a specific online persona for a given customer. Some businesses even take it to the next level and help their clients get into reputable publishers like Forbes, Business Insider, and CNBC. Of course, this is not cheap and can easily cost $15 to $20,000 but for certain businesses, that’s more than worth the cost. This video explains the black market of Wikipedia and how people are able to buy biased Wikipedia articles.
