The ghosts from Elon Musk continue. Wikipedia paged on his particular move which he didn’t like at all.
He was quick to attack her with a series of posts. “Once traditional media propaganda is considered a ‘valid’ source by Wikipedia, of course it just becomes an extension of traditional media propaganda!” he initially reported.
Since legacy media propaganda is considered a “valid” source by Wikipedia, it naturally simply becomes an extension of legacy media propaganda!

A little later, Musk “knocked” again and in a more aggressive style emphasized: “Disuse Wikipedia until balance is restored!”.
Defund Wikipedia until balance is restored!

“Ilon is unhappy that Wikipedia is not for sale”
The answer did not take long to come from one of the founders of Wikipedia. Jimmy Wales was quick to respond to Musk’s comments with his own post on ‘X’.
“I think Elon is unhappy that Wikipedia is not for sale. I hope his campaign to remove us leads to many donations from people who care about the truth. If Elon wanted to help, he would encourage the kind and thoughtful intellectual people he agrees to join.” wrote Wales.
In fact, in his post he also added a link for anyone who wants to participate in the financial support of Wikipedia.
