alt Hacker News > Wikipedia's core policy is verifiability, not truth.
That is, things that a tiny clique of topic campers decides to be verifiable and truthful, are verifiable and truthful on Wikipedia. Once a decision has been made, it's close to impossible to overturn it, no matter how poorly it was justified, because that would be "disruptive".
Layers and layers of policies and guidelines are there only to obscure the fact that Wikipedia reflects what only a very small circle of chronically online weirdos want it to reflect, even if their position is utterly indefensible.
Wikipedia has many policies. Verifiability is one of the most important ones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability.
In this case, Wikipedia's policy is reasonable. I tried looking for any articles in reputable sources that discuss the Odin programming language. I couldn't find any. Not one article in any tech magazine.
