Would be great if you took a few minutes to improve the article then. Reducing the cultural bias of Wikipedia happens the same way as improving Wikipedia in general, one article at a time.

Thanks, I did contribute to Wikipedia long ago (the article about Confucius still has some sequels of my edits), but it happens that I have not enough knowledge on this topic. To me, reminding about Wikipedia's cultural biais is necessary, because many people think it is reliable and complete.
Anyone interested in learning more about this cultural bias might find this essay helpful: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Systemic_bias
