Findings

WikiWarMonitor publishes a list of the 100 most controversial Wikipedia articles in 13 different languages using a special algorithm. One of their findings was that the editorial conflicts vary by language and are endless when it comes to polarizing terms such as 'homosexuality', or individuals such as former U.S. President George W. Bush.
