Estonian volunteers are struggling to protect the English Wikipedia from Russian propaganda aimed at presenting Estonia's history in a more Soviet-friendly light as of late 2025.

By late 2025, Estonian journalists and Wikimedia volunteers report significant challenges combating Russian propaganda on the English-language Wikipedia platform. Russian actors have edited Wikipedia pages to portray Estonia's history in a way that favors Soviet narratives. Estonian volunteers, described as working mostly in their spare time, are struggling to counterbalance the scale and resources behind these pro-Russian disinformation efforts. This digital information warfare represents an ongoing attempt by Russian propaganda to manipulate historical narratives and influence perceptions internationally through online encyclopedias. Wikimedians and journalists highlight the resource disparity, making it difficult to protect Wikipedia's neutrality and factual accuracy.
