Mr. Randombtr will be trusted less about Chinese history than Mr. Uneducatedchinesefarmer, even though there is a possibility that Mr. Randombtr has his Ph.D in Chinese history and has lived in China for 20 years - after all, Mr. Uneducatedchinesefarmer is actually Chinese. Even if he never saw a history textbook, or if he moved to the UK at age 3 and never learnt much about Chinese history than some half truth, half legend that his grandparents taught him (probably more likely - uneducated Chinese farmers are unlikely to be editing on en:), he is trusted disproportionately more because "he is Chinese".
You forgot one exception - at least on en, being Polish makes one considered less trustworthy about Polish history, not more.
