Semi-protected edit request on 15 February 2017

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at PewDiePie. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

There is debate around whether Felix posted anti-semitic content. I think that to say he posted content that was anti-semitic is misleading. I would like to change wording in a sentence of the the 3rd paragraph of the article which is currently:

"As a result of an early 2017 controversy revolving anti-Semitic content and statements PewDiePie made, the Disney-operated Maker Studios ended their partnership with him, dropping him from their network. While he defended his content as jokes that were taken out of context, he conceded it offensiveness."

As a result of an early 2017 controversy revolving around traditional news outlets' perceptions that PewDiePie made anti-Semitic content and statements; the Disney-operated Maker Studios ended their partnership with him by dropping him from their network. While he defended his content as satire that was taken out of context, he did concede that it could be considered offensive.

I believe it to be more accurate. Coltranedis (talk) 15:10, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
