- Mormonism and Wikipedia. FAIR regularly receives queries about specific LDS-themed Wikipedia articles with requests that we somehow "fix" them. Although some individual members of FAIR may choose to edit Wikipedia articles, FAIR as an organization does not. Controversial Wikipedia articles require constant maintenance and a significant amount of time. FAIR prefers to respond to claims in the FAIR Wiki rather than fight the ongoing battle that LDS Wikipedia articles sometimes invite. From FAIR’s perspective, assertions made in LDS-themed Wikipedia articles are therefore treated just like any other critical (or, if one prefers, "anti-Mormon") work. FAIR examines and responds to the following LDS-related Wikipedia articles in detail:
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "Martin Harris"
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "Oliver Cowdery"
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "First Vision"
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "Joseph Smith, Jr."
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "Golden plates"
- A FAIR Analysis of Wikipedia article "Three Witnesses"
