: Male circumcision has a substantial list of harms, complications, disadvantages, and drawbacks, however Jake apparently wanted these to be minimized while the alleged advantages were emphasized. This put him into conflict with others who wanted the whole story to be told. As a result, there were a huge number of revisions to the articles associated with male circumcision until 18 June 2012,<ref name="circhistory2001" /> when Jake resigned from editing.
* [[James Heilman]], a Canadian circumcision enthusiast, is another administrator noted for [[bias]] in favor of non-therapeutic circumcision. Heilman, under the name "Doc James", made his first edit to the circumcision article on 1 June 2011.<ref name="circhistory2001" /> Thereafter, he co-edited with Jake Waskett until Waskett resigned a year later. Heilman made a very large number of edits to the Circumcision article and to related articles to maintain the pro-circumcision bias, but he made his last edit on 11 May 2020.<ref name="circhistory2001" /> Heilman expressed his approval by awarding two "Barnstars" to a long-time British user named Alex Brown who identifies himself as "Alexbrn".<ref name="Alexbrn2021">{{REFweb

* Alexbrn Alex Brown appears to have taken over the duties of regulating the various circumcision related articles.He has not altered the bias found in the Wikipedia circumcision related articles. ==Biased material==[[Brian J. Morris]] is a prominent and well-known Australian promoter of male circumcision, producer of biased articles, and a member of the [[Gilgal Society]]. Morris has associates, such as [[John N. Krieger]] and others with a fetish for circumcision. He and his associates write highly biased articles for medical journals to promote male circumcision. No less than three of Morris' biased articles have been cited in the Wikipedia circumcision article. There also is an article of which Krieger is the sole author.
