This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

"Bol's 'refugee camp'". Media Watch (Australian Broadcasting Corporation). 9 August 2021. We've traced it back to this profile in the SMH five years ago. It then made it to Wikipedia. And as we've now seen, the story became gospel. We're pleased to say Peter Bol's Wiki page has now been updated, which is more than we can say for many of the offending media stories.
