Buster Blader's Lore Debacle: A Years-Long Issue on Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki

Some backstory: Around the time the Buster Blader cards were having their story finalized, there was a card called "Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman" that some genius decided was the aftermath of Buster Blader's story instead of the before. The problem was that the word 'Prologue' wasn't in the Japanese translation and that's why it was an assumed aftermath. The prevailing theory at the time was that Buster Blader had "somehow" (the exact word used) separated Buster Whelp from its evil matured form "Buster Dragon."

Years later, another card called "Protector Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman" came out and thoroughly tarnished the assumption that 'Prologue' (known back then as 'Cradle') was the aftermath, and that Buster Whelp had indeed died as a result of its fight with Buster Blader. Things aren't entirely miserable, as Protector Whelp's existence adds some levity to the theory that there was no sappy "evil separation" and that the bittersweet reality wasn't so bad.

However, even after Buster Whelp's release and the story's narrative is made cohesive, not only have the trivia pages of each card explaining its story not been updated to fall in line with story: the wrong story is now being defended by the one of the moderators. They're not checking the sources for the original posts that made up this now-debunked theory and have instead shifted the burden of proof to anyone who tries to correct it.

Yu-Gi-Oh Wiki is poorly managed, but misinforming people about the sequence of events in such a cool story is just wrong. You wouldn't mislead people about a book, and this is no different, just with pictures instead of words. So I leave it to you: discuss; determine which sequence of events is correct and which isn't. The picture in the post may not contain the artwork of the other Destruction Swords, but it conveys enough of a point.
