Hamadi Jebali: what Wikipedia removed
Hamadi Jebali is a Tunisian politician who served as prime minister and led the Ennahda Movement. The 2015 opening described him as an “Islamist politician” and Ennahda as “a moderate Islamist party in Tunisia.” Today’s opening drops the word from his own description and calls Ennahda “a moderate Islamic party in Tunisia” instead; the word survives 5 times elsewhere in the article. A reader arriving at the opening today learns Jebali led a moderate Islamic party, and not that Wikipedia’s own opening once called both him and Ennahda Islamist rather than Islamic.
The word “islamist” appeared 2 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2015. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 5. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
