Three of the seven links are to expired or "not found" pages.

Thanks a lot, Wikipedia, for your 57% source reliability rate on this subject!

With the exception of the Russian site, which apparently has not yet been discovered and purged by SlimVirgin, what we have here is a case study in WP:Systemic bias. The saying goes that "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter," but that doesn't apply at Wikipedia, where the good guys and bad guys are very clearly defined, categorized, and announced in templates.
