In the time it took you to write out this comment you could have edited the Merrick Garland Wikipedia page to your satisfaction.

If you want changes to stick to a highly visited page like Merrick Garland then you need to either:

1. Craft an essay on the Talk page explaining why your modifications are well sourced and should not be changed

2. Camp the page for modifications

Both of which require much more time than it took to write OP's comment above.

It'd have gotten reverted within 5 minutes. Wikipedia is an absolute dumpster fire for any sort of controversial topic for this exact reason.
