very busy Wikipedia (German) editor that was exposed as an German and Israeli reserve officer

Feliks, born Jörg Egerer, as an adult changed to Jörg Matthias Claudius Grünewald, is an editor of the German edition of Wikipedia.

Overview

Jörg Egerer was born in Bavaria, educated in law, and served in the German armed forces, Bundeswehr, as a lieutenant in the reserve, proven at least until 2015. After changing religion and last name, he was also active in the Israeli armed forces for a limited time, as a member of the Sar-El volunteer unit, in addition to his Bundeswehr activities.

He is active in the German Left Party and was treasurer in a local branch there. According to internal reports by the party, there were irregularities with donation receipts, which was investigated after his resignation.

The self-chosen alias "Feliks" refers to the founder and first director of the Soviet secret service Cheka/GPU, Feliks Dzerzhinsky, under whose leadership up to one hundred thousand political opponents were executed.

Wikipedia editing

Similar to the British Philip Cross, Feliks edited several thousand entries, while using his unassailable position as editor to make sure no counter-narratives could get in.

The targets for his editing were in large part critics of the United States, NATO,and Israel, and events that deal with these subjects. For example, his Wikipedia editing of the Israeli prison Facility 1391 removed any mention of torture.

Professor Daniele Ganser, with his seminal work on the Gladio-network was heavily defamed, especially after his work on WTC7.

Another target was different factions of the Left Party, where his opponents got mercilessly edited in Wikipedia with no recourse and no way of changing the entry.

When his victims complained to Wikipedia, they found there were no legal recourse against it, neither were they able to sue Feliks under German law for defamation, since he remained anonymous. Other users trying to modify these entries got banned, some of them for life.

Favorite labels added were conspiracy theorist and right-wing extremist (critiscim of US/NATO), antisemitism (criticism of hard-line Israeli interests) etc.

Larger networks?

Feliks frequently collaborate with a larger number of editors dealing with the same subjects, many with connections to a net portal called Ruhrbarone, Psiram and the so-called "Anti-Deutsche", as sectarian left-wing group. Having a nominal political hard left view, they by twists of logic consistently support US imperial/transatlantic interest and Israeli hardline views. The group also has its foundation in the 'skeptic movement' (against alternative medicine), leading it to often fail in the other direction and shill for big pharma on Wikipedia.

Exposure

The investigative journalists Markus Fiedler and Dirk Pohlmann discovered and disclosed the true identity of the Wikipedia author in 2018, after much investigative work.

In the case of Feliks, he sued Fiedler and Pohlmann for his right to remain anonymous. In 2018, the District Court in Hamburg ruled that they had the right to de-anonymize him, in the public interest.

They also exposed other Wikipedia editors (Kopilot), and have done extensive research on Wikipedia manipulation:

"Wikipedia is not just what it appears to be. It is more than a lexicon. It is also a bogus encyclopedia, a small but effective opinion manipulation machine. In certain areas, the encyclopedia becomes a pseudo-encyclopedia and has been dominated by a small group consisting of approx. 200 people for years. The only thing remaining is something that looks like a reference book, but is in the hands of dogmatists and people who write in Wikipedia non-stop, but have no qualifications in the areas they write about."
