Looking for a single source for all information is the pitfall. Wikipedia has and always been internet war on “narratives” whatever the field may be. It is perhaps a starting point for most generic of things. But when it comes to topics that are related to or with implications in cultural, political, geopolitics etc in nature, there is information war going on. And the winners are usually the side with the most number of people writing on wiki. To trust it as the ultimate source of facts would make one fallable to a more sophisticated form of influencing that we see on social media.

Wikipedia has ALWAYS been a war front, and not a reliable source of info.

So Chinese bots are on lemmy too now. You obviously didn’t read the article - “Of those aircraft, the ministry said 10 had either crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait, which previously served as an unofficial barrier between the two sides, or entered the southwestern part of Taiwan’s air defence identification zone, or ADIZ.”

In international relations, militaries have defined and at times unspoken rules of engagement. This was NOT routine flight over mainland China that you are making out to be, but was a clear breach of said protocols. Thus Taiwan sent its fighter jets to observe the Chinese military aircraft.
