Go check out the worst wiki ever, Metapedia.
Not just Holocaust denial, but an overbearing obsession with National Socialism and WWII, and related subjects. And NO "degenerate art". It's the Angry White Incel-O-Pedia. Not a "reference work" in any delusion.

The primary, almost the ONLY, "Editor":
https://en.metapedia.org/wiki/User:Crusader
Openly Nazi fanboying. Dumbass.

39 administrators, nearly all inactive. And all with blatant fascist tendencies.
https://en.metapedia.org/wiki/Category: ... nistrators
Many of the thirty-nine are probably the more literate members of the neo-Nazi groups and gangs that exist on the fringes of American and European societies.

Not a "reference work" in any delusion. It's both a pseudoacademic front and a way to blast their worldview at the Internet. All of the neo-Nazi organizations are trying to gain new members, just look at Gary "Gerhard" Lauck's NSDAP/AO website. He has a downloadable PDF file ("nsdapao-mehrsprachig-multilingual" aka "What is the NSDAP/AO?") with a three page leaflet on what his organization is, a short history of it, and links. He has translated this English document into German, French, Spanish, Greek, Italian, Polish, Russian, Hungarian, Finnish, Portuguese, Romanian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Estonian. Czech, Slovenian, Slovakian, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, AND JAPANESE. There are probably goofy political reasons why Norwegian, Ukrainian, and Belorussian were not included, and I'm guessing that Albanians, Croatians, Bosnians, and Serbs are just "too touched by Moorish Islam" to be considered "White enough" for the good message of a man from Nebraska who always spoke in a fake German accent whenever he was in front of national TV cameras. "Farm Belt Führer" indeed.
Still "Globally Banned" on Wikipedia for the high crime of journalism.

I never see it down, but then I rarely look at it. I checked right now and it's up.

Down right now.

The WP articles are funny, unintentionally. What a maroon. 50+ years of marooning, several arrests and four years in a German prison haven't "mellowed" the old fart.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSDAP/AO_(1972)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Lauck

Lauck's article was mostly the work of "Keresaspa", an Irish PhD bearer (claimed) specializing in fascist history. EXACTLY the kind of contributor Wikipoodia SHOULD have writing content. But no longer......Quit in 2017 because "tired of fighting a losing battle against Nazi cunts. Shove Wikipedia up your arse!"

BONUS COMEDY: Lauck himself showed up on the talkpage in 2014, to complain "I have been ACCUSED of TERRORISMN many times, but never INDICTED, let alone CONVICTED of it! My sole convictions were overseas for non-violent political “thought crimes”". (sic)

And Lauck's "memoir thing" looks like the babblings of a psychopath who didn't finish secondary school.

I tried a couple of these Wikis and it seems to link to WIkimedia

Maybe I made a mistake but is that how it seems?
As others have explained, many sites are simply using the same software. Wikisage also runs on MediaWiki. It is quite popular, not just for encyclopedias, but for all sorts of endeavours, e.g. gaming sites and enterprise projects. It is possible to adjust the appearance a lot but not everyone does so.

That said, mirror sites of Wikipedia also exist that simply copy the entire content.
