Wikipedia declares Anti-Defamation League 'unreliable' on Israel, antisemitism

Editors on Wikipedia have voted to label the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as "generally unreliable" regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reported on Tuesday. 

As a result the ADL is being added to a list of sources that are either banned or partially restricted.

A majority of editors also voted to deem the organisation unreliable on the topic of antisemitism because it acts primarily as a pro-Israel organization, tending to label legitimate criticism of Israel as antisemitism.
