In private email with Jimmy Wales, the proprietor and philanthropist in control of the Wikipedia, it has become apparent that he has a blind spot. The Neutral Point of View (NPOV) and a collegial spirit of mutual respect are the publicly stated basis of unity of this project. People who violate this norm are generally given a lot of time to change their ways, but then banished from the project if they don't.
However, Jimmy stays silent when editors with a strong Zionist bias smear, attack, slander, and harass their fellow contributors. When contributors try to apply the NPOV to articles that touch on Judaism, however peripherally, the Zionist contributors not only undo that persons work, but attack them with nary a word of approbium or reproof in response from those with respect and influence in the Wikipedia community. In fact, the persons so attacked are without exception the ones banished.
I have watched countless new contributors driven off in this manner. As a result, the Wikipedia is now heavily slanted toward a pro-Zionist point of view bordering on malicious anti-Muslim, anti-European propaganda. Now that Jimmy Wales, the person who has ultimate control over the project, has come clean about his own sympathies, I feel there is nothing more I wish to do here.
I have no use for a basis of unity that is false and deceptive. I can do better things with my time. Let me know when the Wikipedia smartens up.

Addendum: The word anti-Semite may have certain technical meanings that can be applied to a broad spectrum of individuals, but in the minds of most people it carries an emotional component roughly equivalent to implying that that person is the second coming of Hitler. Many of the people so labelled as anti-Semitic on this Wikipedia publicly expressed their love of Jewish people, and repugnance at the idea of pogroms and bigotry against them. When a word with such intense emotional baggage is applied in such a broad way, it becomes nothing more than slanderous and bigotted in it's turn.
Addendum 2: Somehow people understand that it is not appropriate to describe the Catholic church as a "cult" in this Wikipedia, even though if you look at the definition of that word, in a technical sense it is a valid description. People instinctively respect the emotional baggage that goes along with the word cult. Those using the word anti-Semite are not only not respecting the emotional baggage it contains, they are purposely using the words emotional baggage to smear and assassinate the characters of many gentle and peace-loving individuals in their Wikipedia biographies.
Addendum 3: The nature of religion is that a religions adherents believe it is the right religion, and other religions are wrong. The bias of this encyclopedia is evident in the fact that non-Jewish historical figures who advocated for their own religions or cultures are equated with murdering racists who have portable gas chambers in the back of their pickup trucks. Such Judeocentric bigotry is intolerable because, in this encyclopedia at least, it is uncorrectable.
