I may be an American but I feel excluded from the system as well. Everything in the USA is not actually, American, including our government, like the rest of the world, oligarcies have taken over using copacetic political talking points assumed to be taken for granted.
I once edited the Wikipedia biography of Maine Governor James Longely because the Wikipedia biography omits his most significant legacy- establishing the corporate state and the centralized economy. I was told I had not provided an acceptable reference. My references were directly sourced from statutes and histotical documents obtained from the Maine Legislative Library. I was told a direct source is unacceptable, I must reference an online journal that certifies that which is obvious from reading the actual legislation and historical government reports.
I have been writing my own research blog for years, Based on my own publishing alone I was recruited by Humanities and Social Sciences Communications to do reviews. HSSC is an international academic peer review site. Now I am thinking of applying as an editor but all the other editors are associated with academic organizations. It is intimidating. I am familiar with the way the system works but I found a paper published by HSSC ,which, if what is said therein is actually practiced, HSSC's editors would include people like myself - but there is always that If.
If you do not know HSSC, you should check it out. You may find some useful resources.
I find your observations very interesting but your sentence structuring needs some work.

From your experience, Wikipedia is not a reliable resource site. Is that the the point?
I'd search for the HSSC.
Thank you for the insightful comment and feedback.
On the sentence structuring, I'd pay more attention. A summarised area of focus from you would go a long way also.
Success with your application to the HSSC, in spite of the intimidation.
I like that you are as accessible as an academic by the public.
