To my view it looks more like an attempt to inflate a minor controversy by excessively documenting it. If this much effort were being put into writing about government policy I'd totally agree with you, but this level of detail is uncharacteristic even for Wikipedia.

Wikipedia always had particularly strong rules about how living persons are supposed to be covered. I wouldn't agree with making exceptions just because I dislike a powerful individual.

In terms of leaving the page up: I don't expect Wikipedia to be censored, but looking at this page the content unavoidably comes across as something that'd only merit a couple of lines on the main article. Instead you have a literal essay just to record "those aligned with the left believe that Musk made a Nazi salute, those aligned with the right say that he didn't".

Honestly, I think you're very much underestimating how much Wikipedia writes about government policy - but perhaps more to the point, it's trivial to find articles about controversies regarding the "other side" that are also quite well furnished, e.g.:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_tan_suit_controve...

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%27s_Go_Brandon

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Did_That!

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_White_House_cocaine_incid...

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Township_High_School_District_...

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_name_Geronimo_controversy

So I don't think there's much of an argument to say that they're being particularly biased in doing this (you might believe that none, or almost none of these articles at all should exist, but that's a different issue).
