Source is Wikipedia

Lol. No. Wikipedia didn't exist in 1989. Please learn what sources actually are, rather than doing the usual shitlib thing of assuming that Wikipedia is like the gold tablets of Joseph Smith; a divine font of perfect knowledge straight from God.

EDIT: I just want to point out how both this and another comment chain in this thread ended the instant I asked the lemmy.ml users to back up their claims.

I’ve never had any major issues with Wikipedia but I know it can have issues.

Do you have other sources you’d like to suggest I look at?
