>Is this normal behavior for wikipedia contributors?
Yes, basically. It's bad enough in general, but articles about certain people and political/adjacent stuff is hell. Some editors effectively own certain pages, and I wouldn't be surprised if they had alerts that tell them when edits occur.
>Do they think there's a grand conspiracy out there to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia entries on useless topics?
Not exactly. There are trolls, to be sure. However, the strong effort to push a narrative on certain topics has spread its poison further, and now such behavior is the standard. The rules are stupid, anyway. If you had an article about yourself, Wikipedia would consider someone writing editorials about you to be a better source of info on your person than you are.
