Wikipedia bias on circumcision has been an issue from the very beginning of Wikipedia.
Larry Sanger, a co-founder of Wikipedia in 2001, told of his embarrassment of what Wikipedia has become. Sanger called Wikipedia "a wholly unreliable source of information", speaking primarily of political narrative. Sanger appeared on the Tucker Carlson show, where he "called out the 'Wikipedia game' being played by biased and partisan editors that constantly change and shape articles on the site".[1] The Heartland Institute pronounced Wikipedia to be "broken, biased, and corrupt".[2]
Unfortunately, bias is equally present in articles about and related to male circumcision.
Wikipedia likes to claim that "[a]nyone with Internet access can write and make changes to Wikipedia articles", and to a limited extent this is true. Wikipedia has editors and administrators who have the power to discipline contributors of whom they disapprove.
Wikipedia commenced operations on 15 January 2001. Jake H. Waskett, a British circumcision enthusiast, made his first edit to the circumcision article at Wikipedia on 18 October 2004.
