In June 2024, an edit war involving the articles for the [[2024 Nuseirat rescue operation]] and the [[Nuseirat refugee camp massacre]] occurred, resulting in editing access to the articles being restricted.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Shamim |first=Sarah |last2=Oxford |first2=Dwayne |date=14 June 2024 |title=Wikipedia war: Fierce row erupts over Israel's deadly Nuseirat assault |url=https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/6/14/wikipedia-war-fierce-row-erupts-over-israels-deadly-nuseirat-assault |access-date=2024-06-19 |website=[[Al Jazeera English]] |language=en |archive-date=2024-06-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240617230750/https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/6/14/wikipedia-war-fierce-row-erupts-over-israels-deadly-nuseirat-assault |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=15 June 2024 |title=Wikipedia article on Israeli army's Nuseirat massacre in Gaza sparks edit war, restrictions |url=https://www.newarab.com/news/wikipedia-article-nuseirat-massacre-sparks-edit-war |access-date=June 20, 2024 |website=[[The New Arab]] |archive-date=16 June 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240616033210/https://www.newarab.com/news/wikipedia-article-nuseirat-massacre-sparks-edit-war |url-status=live }}</ref>
==== Determination of unreliability of the Anti-Defamation League ====
In the same month, the English [[Wikipedia community]] declared the [[Anti-Defamation League]] (ADL) a generally unreliable source about the conflict.<ref name="Independent ADL">{{cite web |last=Marcus |first=Josh |date=19 June 2024 |title=Why Wikipedia just labeled a top Jewish rights organization 'unreliable' on the Israel-Palestine crisis |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/wikipedia-adl-report-jewish-israel-palestine-b2565058.html?callback=in&code=NWIWY2UWYJMTMDDMOS0ZOWIWLWIYNTYTMWUWODU4YTJIZDEW&state=c0c4cd87289b4d09b1b1bd8ac1429217 |access-date=19 June 2024 |website=[[The Independent]] |archive-date=19 June 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240619231624/https://www.independent.co.uk/_build/init_register_wall.7a4ff50e71ffb5e9a1d9.js |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Elia-Shalev|first=Asaf|date=19 June 2024|title=Wikipedia moves to bar ADL, claiming reliability concerns on Israel and antisemitim[sic]|website=[[The Times of Israel]]|url=https://www.timesofisrael.com/wikipedia-moves-to-bar-adl-claiming-reliability-concerns-on-israel-and-antisemitim/|access-date=19 June 2024|archive-date=19 June 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240619045428/https://www.timesofisrael.com/wikipedia-moves-to-bar-adl-claiming-reliability-concerns-on-israel-and-antisemitim/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=":6">{{Cite web |last=Goldman |first=David |date=2024-06-19 |title=Wikipedia now labels the top Jewish civil rights group as an unreliable source |url=https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/19/media/wikipedia-adl/index.html |access-date=2024-06-19 |website=[[CNN Business]] |language=en |archive-date=2024-06-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240619231736/https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/19/media/wikipedia-adl/index.html |url-status=live }}</ref> An English Wikipedia administrator who evaluated the community's consensus for this discussion cited the existence of substantial evidence of the ADL acting as a "pro-Israeli advocacy group" that has published unretracted misinformation "to the point that it taints their reputation for accuracy and fact checking regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict", as well as a "habit on the ADL's part of conflating criticism of the Israeli government's actions with antisemitism".<ref name=Bandler>{{cite news |last1=Bandler |first1=Aaron |title=Wikipedia Editors Label ADL Only Reliable for Antisemitism When "Israel and Zionism Are Not Concerned" |url=https://jewishjournal.com/news/united-states/372532/wikipedia-editors-label-adl-only-reliable-for-antisemitism-when-israel-and-zionism-are-not-concerned/ |access-date=22 June 2024 |work=[[Jewish Journal]] |date=21 June 2024 |archive-date=June 22, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240622020506/https://jewishjournal.com/news/united-states/372532/wikipedia-editors-label-adl-only-reliable-for-antisemitism-when-israel-and-zionism-are-not-concerned/ |url-status=live }}</ref> Later that month, the English Wikipedia community concluded the ADL's lack of reliability extended to "the intersection of antisemitism and the [Israeli-Palestinian] conflict, such as labeling pro-Palestinian activists as antisemitic", but "the ADL can roughly be taken as reliable on the topic of antisemitism when Israel and Zionism are not concerned".<ref name=Bandler/>
