Indeed. I have read several times in the discussions on Wikipedia about articles related to free software that the use of the term "GNU/Linux" to refer to the GNU operating system is, at least, a debatable topic. It is argued that the "neutral term Linux" should be used to refer to the operating system, as otherwise it could be interpreted as taking sides. I suppose and hope that this proprietary opinion comes from the same proprietary idiot.
They sometimes just blatantly lie. For example, they use photographs of foods in articles that do not correspond to the same products (e.g., a photo of a corndog in an article about a panchuque). Although the panchuque can be considered a variation of a corndog, the caption of the photograph states "a panchuque".
