Ok, fine. I’m not critiquing their directive. Just saying what it was at the time. Ergo, I’m not making the news, just reporting it.

The point is that Wikipedia (in theory) doesn’t make any argument about anything. It simply mirrors or summarizes information. Using Wikipedia as a source is somewhat similar to listing “the notes I made during class” as your source. Your source list is not meant to simply list where you got the information from, but actually list the origin of that information.
