I don't know about lists, but what you mention is an interesting problem, and not just for Wikipedia, but for all societies in regard to the internet. Our economic system, and the plight of people such as the Palestinians, means that access too and creation of information on the internet is an extremely unequal affair.
This is incorrect, as far as societies that don't censor Internet access go. Now, maybe in Islamic countries it's hard to get online due to national restrictions. But in every part of the English-speaking world that is not a problem.
Also, the cost barrier is much lower than you may realize: 4 hours of minimum wage labor will pay for one month of Internet service, in the US, for example. If someone has 30 hours a week of free time, okay, maybe if he's wealthy it only costs him 30 to 60 minutes of labor time to pay for Internet, and he can spend the other 29 hours surfing or (better yet) writing Wikipedia articles; while the other guy has only 26 hours. That's only a 12% advantage: admittedly unequal, but not extremely so. More like moderately or slightly...
If people have plights, and you want to write about it for Wikipedia, please do so. Not having a homeland is a plight, so you can write about Kurds as well as Palestinians. Not having a safe place to live is a plight, so you can write about any of 2 or 3 dozen insurgencies and/or civil wars dragging in recent decades. Not having a country that's free from the threat of foreign invasion is a plight, so you can write about Taiwan and Israel, et al. Not having freedom of religion or the right to emigrate is a plight, so you can write about Cuba, North Korea, et al.
There are lots of plights, and Wikipedia has LOTS of disk space. Go to it!
