Wikipedia is a free content online encyclopedia written and maintained by a community of volunteers, known as Wikipedians. Wikipedia suffers from systemic bias both from woke groups and from corporations. Feminists have run edit-a-thons to add content to articles related to feminism, anti-feminism and men's rights.

Negative and inaccurate portrayals of men and boys have permeated mainstream media and online knowledge repositories such as Wikipedia, where the bias is particularly evident. Wikipedia editors routinely write negative commentaries about men and Wikipedia admins protect those commentaries while censoring counter-narratives that might show less biased, more accurate information.

Those in control of Wikipedia have succeeded in deplatforming much reliable information about men and boys.

Despite this Wikipedia continues to be the largest and most-read reference work in history, and is consistently ranked among the ten most visited websites; as of August 2024, it was ranked fourth by Semrush, and seventh by Similarweb. Founded by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger on January 15, 2001, Wikipedia has been hosted since 2003 by the Wikimedia Foundation, an American nonprofit organization funded mainly by donations from readers.

Initially only available in English, editions of Wikipedia in more than 300 other languages have been developed. The English Wikipedia, with its almost 6.9 million articles, is the largest of the editions, which together comprise more than 63 million articles and attract more than 1.5 billion unique device visits and 13 million edits per month (about 5 edits per second on average) as of April 2024. In July 2024, over 25% of Wikipedia's traffic was from the United States, followed by Japan at 6.2%, the United Kingdom at 5.8%, Russia at 5.2%, Germany at 5%, and the remaining 51% split among other countries, according to Similarweb.

The reliability of Wikipedia has frequently been criticized since the beginning. Various orgaisations including The Register have been openly hostile to Wikipedia and their funding drives.
