In this article on baidu, there is a gap between 1988 and 1999, why is there nothing about some kind of protest that everyone keeps telling me about?
Edit: Thank you for responding, you have taught me a great deal about the usage and necessity of propaganda, counter-propaganda and censorship in a Marxist-Leninist state like China. Although some relied upon lies and insults as a means of trying to win an argunent, I got actual contentful theoretical education out of this, thanks.
Info on TinSquare isn’t censored, you can find it in the Chinese web, they don’t hide anything about it (because there is nothing much to hide!). But as bobs_guns says, if the info is already available, does it need to be on every mention of TS, especially for a touristy site?

Baidu baike is a 百科, an encyclopedia, not a tourist site.
Hm, okay that’s fair, I looked around a little more and see it is indeed an encyclopedia, although I will say it isn’t very detailed. I guess I don’t know what the role this website is trying to fill; is this for introductory content? Is this a heavy traffic site? I will say that there definitely is TS detailed in other Chinese sites, a Chinese website is about half of where I read about TS originally. I don’t think there is anything they should fear they have to hide. I guess my new guess will have to be: brevity.
I have spent more time looking around; a lot of articles are very spotty, have typos, miss fairly important information. Their article on the USA was almost…lukewarm? It’s an odd site for sure. Incomplete at best.
