WIKIPEDIA stopped users from editing the page of a senior Sun hack today after references to the newspaper’s use of neo-nazi resources to attack Jeremy Corbyn were erased.

On Saturday December 7 the paper’s political editor Thomas Newton Dunn published an article titled “Hijacked Labour” on the Sun website.

The piece alleged that a group of former British intelligence officers had uncovered an “extremist network” centred around Jeremy Corbyn.

Listing many liberal and left-wing journalists, academics and political figures, the conspiracy theory described a “spider’s web” which stretched “from Marxist intellectuals to militant groups and illegal terror organisations.”

The website that Mr Newton Dunn’s article directed readers towards showed a map listing various names and organisations, with further reading links.

The varied names and organisations listed in the website included poststructuralist philosopher Jacques Derrida, the Provisional IRA, left-wing journalist Owen Jones, Colombian FARC guerrillas, and liberal-left media outlet OpenDemocracy.

Page links also directed readers to articles published in Aryan Unity, the former publication of the neo-nazi British People’s Party.

Novara Media co-founder Aaron Bastani, who was listed on the website, referred to Mr Newton Dunn’s piece as a “left-wing hit list.”

An attempt was later made to update the “Controversy” section of Mr Newton Dunn’s Wikipedia page on December 10 to include details of the article, however a Wikipedia user called “Tnewtondunn” deleted the section on Wednesday evening, with his reason being: “Falsehood, so deleted.”

Twitter user Sinan Kose, who noticed the change yesterday, said: “Gee, I wonder who Wikipedia user “Tnewtondunn” could possibly be? Any ideas guys?”
