Having a demonstrable example of a fully automated idiot saves us the time otherwise wasted posting secondary evidence that idiots exist.
Wikipedia is basically written by Indians. Read the sources list at the end of any article about indopak issues and you will see it is populated with Indian texts. This is what we call bias. Such articles wouldn't stand up to scrutiny in a court of law or in any neutral agency, yet, as you say, Indians quote it relentlessly.
As our latest Indian friend himself admitted, the sheer weight of numbers in India of uneducated biased "authors" allows them to contribute an unabated stream of garbage into Wikipedia.... And yet the same poster would use this as his reference point.
To give you an example, here is the reference list for the wiki entry for "tiger hill battle". At best, there are 5 biased and 2 neutral sources, could be worse. An entry regarding a battle uses mainly references from one of the belligerents and totally ignores the other! Herodotus would be like Wtf!?
