Is there any easy way to find all of citations of specified academic articles on Wikipedias in all languages, and the text that is supported by those references, so that the citations of questionable articles can be removed and the article texts can be quickly reviewed for possible changes or removal?

If we don't have easy ways to deal with this (and I believe that we don't), I'd like to suggest that the Community Tech team work on tools to help when these situations happen.
Thanks,
