You are comparing apples and oranges here... The holocaust is knowable because people actually experienced if first hand. The existence of God is not provable and is based upon belief ('faith'). Anyone who "knows" rather than "believes" that God exists is probably violating the tenets of their professed religion.
I'd wager that there are more people alive today that have directly experienced God first hand than have /ever/ directly experienced the Shoah. I don't pretend to have data to back up that hunch; however, I do know some of the former people personally, and if you like, then I'll ask if it violates their beliefs to claim to /know/ that God exists. I doubt it. Not all faiths are as wishy-washy as (say) liberal Protestantism.
Perhaps Wikipedia needs to be "a documentation of human knowledge and beliefs" - but with the latter we make a qualified statement that a belief exists, and in most cases there is a counter-belief.
Indeed, and that's what NPOV does. Even for the Shoah!
