The idea, says Shaked and her colleauges, is not to storm in, cause havoc and get booted out — the Wikipedia editing community is sensitive, consensus-based and it takes time to build trust. Is that Shiloh in the occupied West Bank? One Jerusalem-based Wikipedia editor, who doesn't want to be named, said that publicising the initiative might not be such a good idea.

In , members of the hawkish pro-Israel watchdog Camera who secretly planned to edit Wikipedia were banned from the site by administrators. Meanwhile, Yesha is building an information taskforce to engage with new media, by posting to sites such as Facebook and YouTube, and claims to have 12, active members, with up to more signing up each month.

The organisiers of the Wikipedia courses, are already planning a competition to find the "Best Zionist editor", with a prize of a hot-air balloon trip over Israel. There are frequent flare-ups between competing volunteer editors and obsessives who run Wikipedia. It describes how, in the immediate aftermath of the war, characters like Kurowski worked to rehabilitate the image of the German army—to argue that a few genocidal apples had spoiled the barrel.

With a guy like Hitler to pin the blame on, the rest was easy. Then, in the mids, a museum exhibit cataloging the crimes of the Nazi-era military traveled throughout Germany. An odd situation emerged: Germans began to speak more honestly about the Wehrmacht than non-Germans did. When Coffman reads this, something clicks. She is dealing with a poisonous tree here.

She should be chopping it off at the trunk. She begins to use Wikipedia to document the false historical narrative, and its purveyors, and then make the fight about dubious sources rather than specific articles.

She removes biased sources and any information based on those sources. When she is done, typically, there is nothing left to the article—nothing to say about the person—other than the fact that he won an award. Another Nazi legend bites the dust. He flashes a smile, unaware that he is doomed. Unfortunately for Knispel, his reputation rests almost entirely on stories told by Kurowski, as well as an account in the Wehrmachtbericht , the Nazi propaganda broadcast.

Coffman strips away the apocryphal stories of action and adventure, like the one that says Knispel was held back from promotions because he assaulted a superior. She is entering her most prolific period. She has been filling her User page with study guides and research, but now her tone gets bolder, punchier.

The page is becoming a sprawling tongue-in-cheek taxonomy of her obsession—and the parapet from which she taunts her adversaries. They go back and forth again. Eventually, Coffman appeals to the broader Wikipedia community to decide who is right about the notability of these medal winners. The debate hinges on certain policy wordings, along with the question of how to compare military awards from France, the US, Great Britain, and Germany.

The fight rages across pages for months. This is a common misimpression among the Military History gang. Coffman never tries to correct it. After six months of debate, on January 22, , Coffman is vindicated. An administrator leaves a note steeped in Wikipedia reasoning. After the case is settled, Coffman and her more vocal opponents retreat to separate corners.

But one bitter-ender, LargelyRecyclable, appears to create a troll account and continues objecting to her changes. LargelyRecyclable is banned indefinitely from editing English Wikipedia.
