    Where’s all this hate against Wikipedia from? First off Wikipedia moved the article from “Allegations…” to "Gaza genocide back in May 2024, not just now. Secondly, moderators (assuming you mean administrators) do not have more say than others in content decisions. Thirdly, what you’re describing is referred to within WP as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV_dispute#POV_pushing, and I do not see any failings of the current procedure to address this.

      From:

      Most of them from are from the west want to shape their own version of history…

      AKA Wikipedia writing something specific people don’t want to hear, therefore the Wikipedia system must be fundamentally broken and biased.


      Wikipedia is far from perfect, but they are cognisant of that. That’s kinda the point. English Wikipedia undoubtedly has a Western slant too, but that doesn’t nullify their system that’s held up reasonably well as the internet burns down around them.
