Yes, propaganda by small, unknown cults is, I think, a serious problem on Wikipedia. The bigger, well known ones are not a problem.

Adherents often simply copy the website of their religious group into Wikipedia. As a rather funny example, there is one article that states as a proven fact that a guru became 135 years old. Fortunately somebody noticed it and complained which is still pending. Correcting the information on religious groups rarely develops in such bitter, long-lasting fights, such as with Prem Rawat/Maharaji.
