Jimmy Wales highlighted the need for improved neutrality in Wikipedia's 'Gaza Genocide' article, criticizing its current biased portrayal and urging editors to use balanced, high-quality sources to fairly represent all perspectives amid ongoing controversy.
Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales criticized X (formerly Twitter) after its acquisition by Elon Musk, stating that the platform is losing users and has been "overrun by trolls and lunatics." Wales believes that the exodus of thoughtful and serious individuals from X, which he considers the default public square, is detrimental to society. Research shows a decline in engagement metrics for X. The criticism follows a longstanding feud between Musk and Wales, with Musk previously accusing Wikipedia of left-wing bias. Wales has launched Trust Cafe as an alternative platform, aiming to create a community of trustworthy individuals based on content quality rather than viral popularity.
