I wanted to discuss a sentence recently added to the lead of the article. It is "On July 2021, Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger have said that the Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia site have became a ‘propaganda’ for left-leaning ‘establishment’ worldwide.".
Although the paragraph it is on discusses the materials in spreading propaganda, the range they have, and that bots spread propaganda, this sentence seems to speak more about the more specific topic of perceived ideological bias in Wikipedia more than about the general topic of propaganda, and might fit better in Ideological bias on Wikipedia than in this article.
As I perceived outright deleting/moving it might be a controversial move, I wanted to discuss it here before making any changes to the page.

What are some ideas for turning this article from a vital C-class article to a GA? Or at least, a B-class article? Philomathes2357 ( talk) 07:07, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Posters shown were examples of advertising rather than true propaganda. True propaganda is convincingly able to engineer consent of the mass population. Merely being racist or stereotypical or even nationalistic does not make them true propaganda 97.120.210.206 ( talk) 09:49, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
These are excellent articles about propaganda (a MUST read!) dealing with MAGA's war against truth, freedom, and democracy. It is carried on by elements of Trumpism (MAGA, GOP, Trump) and Trump's autocratic dictator friends.
The refs are fully usable as is. -- Valjean ( talk) ( PING me) 19:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
