After weeks of investigation, volunteer editors on English
Wikipedia announced today that they blocked 381 user accounts for “black hat”
editing.[1]
The accounts were engaged in undisclosed paid advocacy—the practice
of accepting or charging money to promote external interests on Wikipedia without
revealing their affiliation, in violation of Wikimedia’s Terms of Use. The editors
issued these blocks as part of their commitment to ensuring Wikipedia is an
accurate, reliable, and neutral knowledge resource for everyone.
