This page is providing false information as Gaza now is an independent source which represent the Gazan people and is not affiliated to any particular group’s ideology or politics. If you pride yourself on providing the correct information then it should be removed from this article that Gaza Now is an Hamas affiliated group 92.1.181.88 (talk) 06:34, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Gazanow is not affiliated to Hamas

Gaza has now announced on its official Telegram channel that it is an independent media outlet that is not affiliated with Hamas or any party or group. Source: https://t.me/gazaalannet/47671

They can say whatever they want- do independent reliable sources state that? 331dot (talk) 10:43, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

misinformation

Gazanow is an independent Palestinian media that does not belong to any party. This is from one of its official sources: https://twitter.com/nowgnna/status/1734007074630041953?s=19 Sandy376 (talk) 10:55, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sandy376 This page is being flooded with these comments- as I asked above, do any independent reliable sources state this? They can say whatever they want about themselves. 331dot (talk) 11:05, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that is not affiliated with any party and does not support any party or country. Therefore, information must be transferred from its sources first, and the official source here is Gaza Now, and if you want to add independent sources, you can point to that. What is more correct here is to say that Gaza Now is an independent media body, according to what it declares, and you can cite its official sources. You can add: There are other parties accusing it of being affiliated with Hamas... Gaza has now categorically denied this... This is how a neutral article should be, which is not biased towards any party. Volkovsami (talk) 11:21, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Volkovsami No, that's not how Wikipedia works. The main purpose of Wikipedia is to summarize what independent reliable sources state about a topic, not what it says about itself. This organization is free to state its own views on its own social media, as it apparently has. Organizations(and people) can say whatever they want about themselves. Wikipedia is interested in what others say about them, and currently most other sources- at least the four source provided in this article- say this organization is affilated with Hamas. If you have independent sources that report on their disavowing a connection with Hamas, please offer them. 331dot (talk) 11:26, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's how Wikipedia works. You know this exactly and you only want to promote Israeli terrorism that kills civilians and children... If the article about Israel and its terrorist crimes and its killing of children had been from an independent source (Al Jazeera, for example), your response would have been different from this and you would have said that the official Israeli sources deny this. Behind your mind there is a criminal who is being exploited by the Zionists to promote their crimes and racial genocide. Volkovsami (talk) 11:56, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No one here is promoting terrorism or conflict. Be aware of no personal attacks. If you are too invested in this conflict to be able to set aside your views and contribute dispassionately about this topic, you should find something else to edit about. If necessary, you can be blocked. 331dot (talk) 12:03, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't said that you are wrong- we just need to see independent sources. I would say that about Israeli media. 331dot (talk) 12:05, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What you say is wrong. A person cannot be completely blocked on the Internet. In the best cases, the IP address or temporary username that was created only to teach you and give you lessons can be blocked. You are misusing your rules. You are promoting rumors under the guise of an “independent media source”... There are millions of lies promoted by parties that claim to be independent. The parties that claimed to be independent in this article are in themselves media outlets that are not independent, even though they claim to be so.
