Is Wikipedia a “gatekeeper”?

I heard today that TikTik.com is now considered a “gatekeeper”.

A new “up and coming” internet celebrity, who seems to have the potential to become an overnight millionaire (based alone on spit) named Haliey Welch, also known as “Hawk Tuah”, became famous via TikTok.com — but wikipedia.org has posted a profile for the star which contains no link to tiktok.com but instead links to her instagram.com profile.

I think that’s weird.
