Political biases, inaccuracies, and events left out in Wikipedia's timeline of history

[ProfessorCurio]

I'm working on a project to create a reference timeline for my literary experimentation, however I notice that over time wikipedias recorded history is losing accuracy and being recorded in an increasingly biased manner.
What are some examples of political bias, inaccuracy, and events left out or lacking context in Wikipedia's recorded timeline of history and records of the events themselves?
List of timelines - Wikipedia
Timelines of modern history - Wikipedia
Timeline of the 21st century - Wikipedia
Please provide good reasoning or better yet some sources that can speak for themselves even if with assistance from said good reasoning.
I'm sure this will be helpful to others, and not merely myself.

If you don't like Wikipedia for being too Woke, go and rely on Conservapedia instead and, if necessary, improve Conservapedia.

Conservapedia goes too far in the opposite direction and is too limited in scope and coverage, though it does have some good points and good pieces I can use.
I am no historian and doubt I would be able to do much to change that arrangement. Do you have anything useful to contribute other than basically saying "Just look for a 'better' Wikipedia matching a different political orientation or make historical research a full-time deal."?
I'm not asking anyone to give me a complete revamped timeline, but rather to share examples that they notice which bother them.
And before you go and say, "Make your own website arsehole," or something equally unhelpful along those lines, you should know that it's been tried many times before by other concerned netizens and has failed to take off and succeed due to lack of support and I dare say that very mindset.

I think that Wikipedia has become too Woke on things such as race and IQ:

Unfinished Wikipedia FAQ on IQ etc.

Some time ago, I was building a large reference FAQ for use on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, some activist admins came along and deleted it. The archived version is here. The background for this is that I commented on a discussion about user MjolnirPants/MPants at work, who has a very long histor

emilkirkegaard.dk

Does that count for this?

Not particularly timeline focused but definitely an example of the kind of content that I'm looking for, this is great. I might have to make a thread about more general content missing from Wikipedia or change this thread if it's allowed. What do you think?

Seems like a good idea, in my honest opinion. What's especially interesting is that this Wikipedia editor apparently made this FAQ on his own user page, but even this was not enough for the people who are in charge of running Wikipedia.

Interestingly enough, though, Wikipedia has gotten some criticism for the SPLC for its writing on race and IQ in the past:

Wikipedia wars: inside the fight against far-right editors, vandals and sock puppets

Like Facebook, Google and Twitter, Wikipedia has become a fixture of online life.

www.splcenter.org

But that article was from 2018, so Wikipedia might have become more Woke since then, unfortunately.

Use Metapedia. It is far more accurate than Wikipedia.
