They have Radio Free Asia as a greenlisted reliable source here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources

So anything on Radio Free Asia is considered verified by Wikipedia's standards.

Radio Free Asia is openly a branch of the USA's government. It was created by Bill Clinton's government.

Ctrl+F Radio Free Asia on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China gives 32 results

But not any decent non Western or left publication.

I scanned and Jacobin, al-Jazeera, The New Republic are the best there.

Voice of America is also greenlisted.

Wikileaks is verboten even though Wikileaks has never been known to publish a single fake document.

I remember that al-Jazeera recently wasn't allowed for Israel, but I'm too lazy to look it up now.
