This section is here to provide answers to some questions that have been previously discussed on this talk page.
Q1: Why does this article say Gab is known for its far-right userbase?
A1: A request for comment determined unanimously that reliable sources described Gab as such. See Talk:Gab (social network)/Archive 6#RfC about whether "Known for it's far-right user base" should be kept or excluded from the lede. Q2: Why does this article look different than articles about other social networks, like Twitter and Facebook?
A2: The coverage of Gab in reliable sources is very different from the coverage of Twitter and Facebook. We strive to represent fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic (WP:NPOV), and so if the sourcing is very different, the articles will be too. If you think changes need to be made to another article, please discuss them at that article's talk page. When contributing to this talk page, please keep in mind WP:OTHERCONTENT.It is worth noting that this article is quite similar to other articles on social networks and websites which are also known for extremist userbases, such as Parler, 8chan, BitChute, etc. |
