Can you please share the output of pacman -V?

I don't think your system is fully updated. base32 indicates from your output that you're using Pacman v5.2.2. However, the latest version of Pacman in the official repositories is v6.0.0. Try the ArchWiki CAPTCHA again after updating the pacman package.
