Essentially what happend with the scotish (iirc? Maybe welsh? )Wikipedia.

Scots wikipedia. What happened is some people started adding articles in a broken made up version of scots and no actual scots native was active enough to quality control everything so now the whole project is polluted with made up language.

And AI enabled LLMs were all trained on it lol

And even worse, people are using LLM’s that can’t properly speak the language to write new wikipedia articles. This is a big problem for endangered languages which have very little online content and LLMs are poor in.
