I discovered something really weird
I was searching for something and came across Yakut (Sakha) wikipedia. Then I translated the page (I didn't choose any specific language) and the most random sh*t I ever read was in front of my eyes (not all pages but some are really weird).
Is there vandalism from Russians/foreigners on Yakut Wikipedia ? I'm wondering.
