Some of the garbage I've been involved with that I either had to avoid or bail out of an edit or revert war:

* A claim on "Fisting" that "seasoned fisters can insert their arm up to the shoulder into the anus", "supported" by a deleted PornHub video.

* Fighting on a Production Car top ten list when Tesla announced that Ludicrous Mode was coming the next year and "expected" to have certain performance stats, where multiple editors fell over each other to make sure it stayed at the top of the list, even when they eventually had to add a column just for Tesla where every other result had "Actual Results" and the Tesla had "Projected/Expected Results".

* A collation of John Deere tractors that described multiple models as "light years ahead of the competition".

* An article on an Australian drug smuggler where exhibits from court case were being removed as "biased".
