Fake Yuri Gudymenko died.

Unidentified people wrote to Russian "Wikipedia" that activist and leader of "Democratic Axe" Yuri Gudymenko died on March 30. Gudymenko pointed this out to him. On 11 March this information was removed from Wikipedia, noting: "Yury Gudymenko is alive. This is confirmed by his Instagram posts from March 30." Russian propaganda uses Wikipedia as a tool for spreading its manipulations and narratives - this is evidenced, in particular, by the large number of disagreements in the Ukrainian and Russian versions of Wikipedia regarding the same cases or personalities; there have been repeated cases of editing facts and attempts to remove materials from the encyclopedia. We urge not to trust unverified information and to use only official sources. Keep in mind that Wikipedia is created by volunteers and volunteers, and is often edited by amateurs.
