Contrary to an Economic Times report early on Monday, India’s ministry of electronics and information technology has not “summoned” any Wikipedia executives over vandalised pages.
Instead, the ministry has asked the Wikimedia Foundation to provide information on action taken on vandalised Wikipedia pages belonging to Indian cricketer Arshdeep Singh and an Indian footballer with the same name. This information must be provided within 24 hours, Newslaundry has learned.
