Update: 2025-11-04
Description
Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales calls for a more neutral approach to the controversial Gaza article, urging editors to acknowledge multiple perspectives and avoid declaring legal conclusions. Despite some reports, he did not personally lock the article, as volunteer administrators made the decision to limit editing due to negative edits attracted by the topic being in the news. However, his statement has sparked controversy within the Wikipedia community, with some accusing him of a bad faith read and appalling overreach.
