Wikipedia blocks Co-Founder Sanger from editing site after his Hindu, conservative outreach
short by Medhaa Gupta / on Tuesday, 23 June, 2026
Wikipedia blocked its Co-Founder Larry Sanger, from editing its site over allegations of "canvassing". Sanger posted about the block on X, saying, "I've been blocked by Wikipedia 'indefinitely'...by the 'consensus' of a mob." This comes after Sanger proposed a 'WikiProject Intellectual Diversity' and urged underrepresented groups, like Hindus and conservatives, to be more involved in the site.
