ADL report accuses Wikipedia editors of antisemitic bias

Published March 18, 2025 12:09pm ET



The Anti-Defamation League has accused at least 30 “agenda-driven” Wikipedia editors of bringing antisemitic narratives to the website, along with its Arabic-language pages portraying the Hamas terrorist group in a positive light.

The ADL’s report, published Tuesday, states that the 30 editors in question were far more active than other Wikipedia editor groups based on the last 10 years, specifically to edit the website’s pages on the conflict between Israel and Hamas by minimizing Palestinian antisemitism while promoting criticism of Israel. The report also claims these edits have increased following the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack carried out by Hamas against Israel, which has included removing coverage of Palestinian violence and terrorism.
