I think it ceased to be a wiki a long time ago. The whole point of a wiki is to have the lowest barrier to entry possible for editing so any non-expert can jump in and change something quickly. The word “wiki” is Hawaiian for “quick”.
But these days, a huge amount of bureaucracy has sprung up around editing things on Wikipedia. There’s an immense number of rules; there are people with seemingly infinite time gatekeeping their favourite topics; there are protected pages; there are notability requirements; there are vast IP bans; and so on. Wikipedia has a bureaucracy fetish and an army of rules lawyers. You might argue that for the scale of Wikipedia this is required, and I’m sure there’s at least some truth to that, but that is incompatible with the idea of a wiki.
