Yep, Wikipedia is written largely by westerners using western consensus, even if such consensus has inaccuracies or better information is available post-opening of the soviet archives. You can even see it uses the Gulag Archipelago as a source, despite it being a work of fiction.
I suppose to a certain degree that’s true, I just don’t trust the personal account of a Nazi that has been known to lie and that contradicts archival evidence.
But you’ll believe USSR reports? To me, viewing your claims in this comment thread, you seem to dismiss anything that doesnt fit your narrative as baised or uninformed.
Yes, I trust official documentation historians use these days after the opening of the soviet archives over the personal account of a known liar, conspiracy theorizing Nazi whose own wife said he was lying.
This sounds a little different.
