'''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".<ref name="sanger2021">{{REFweb

While Sanger spoke of political articles, unfortunately, [[bias]] is equally present in articles about and related to male [[circumcision]].
