The usage of [[Wikipedia]] as a tool for promoting this type of propaganda is second only to Google itself. It is quite possible that this came about due to the fact that other editors and Admin are simply uneducated in these matters. This exposes a major flaw in Wikipedia which is that ''“a group of editors can learn to work the system so they can promote their own point of view, so that the article will become a stated Wiki fact, and itself a piece of history".

Is Wikipedia taking on a darker tone? Where are the '''ethical''' & moral issues involved in creating a feel good story about Dictator Josip Broz- Tito.

In the past (or in a more traditional contemporary societies) such as cults were reserved for deities and associated with conventional religious behaviour and institutions. These cults although apparently an intrinsic part of communist dictatorships (at any rate at a stage in their evolution) are largely forgotten today.

The article doesn't even mention his ''Cult of Personality'':
*“ Stalin, Maio, Castro, Ho Chi Minh, Kim Sung, Enver Hoxha, Ceascesu, Dimitrov, Ulbricht, Gottwald, '''Tito''' and others all were the object of such cults. The '''prototypical''' cult was that of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin Stalin] which was duplicated elsewhere with minor variations”
