Wikipedia has a page dedicated to the current Monkeypox outbreak. It saw the day of light in the early days of the outbreak and is managed by people with sufficient resources to spend much of their days maintaining it.
This in itself is suspicious. It indicates that someone has been willing to set aside money for this project. This in turn indicates that there's an agenda related to the page.
However, things aren't going the way the backer would have liked them to go. This is evident from the way data is presented. Some things aren't being reported on as thoroughly as they should. Graphs and charts aren't being updated. Instead, we have a lot of grisly pictures. This is hardly a sign of objective reporting.
The graphs that aren't updated are the ones that would have shown that the spread of Monkeypox has stalled. The disease is no longer spreading exponentially. Yet, this good news isn't mentioned with a word. The data isn't being logged in such a way that we can see it without keeping track of the numbers ourselves.
Wikipedia can't randomly make up data without ruining its reputation. However, they do present things in ways that are slanted towards whatever their backers want them to say. In the case of Monkeypox, the backers are trying to scare us into doing something silly. They want us to take a newly developed vaccine that happened to be ready for production a few weeks before the outbreak of the disease.
The Wikipedia page is little more than a sales pitch for the vaccine. However, the data they present can still be trusted. We just have to keep track of it ourselves.
