I don't think it's too surprising that stuff like can happen on a non-English Wikipedia. The English one has superb moderation and reliability, but other languages range in quality from pretty good to complete garbage. It's a shame because often the only comprehensive article written about something will be in another language.

I don't think I've ever seen that claim before. It's... maybe true of some articles.
Yeah, the English Wikipedia definitely has similar problems, though they may not be on such a grand scale as this. For instance, I know there's one user who, for at least a decade, has basically been trying to breath life into a new religious concept with a Wikipedia page for it. He's persistent enough, benefits from a relatively frequent typo for sourcing, and his the corner is obscure enough that nothing can be done (given Wikipedia's culture and his persistence).
