Joe Rogan on wikipedia: what the evidence says · JRE #2055
SUBJECT: WIKIPEDIA
The short answer
Rogan claims Wikipedia deleted all of Andrew Huberman's published peer-reviewed scientific papers from his Wikipedia page after Huberman made a comment following an RFK Jr. podcast appearance. False. Rogan says Wikipedia deleted all of Andrew Huberman's peer-reviewed papers. The live English Wikipedia article on Huberman still carries a 'Selected publications' section listing peer-reviewed papers with PMIDs (for example a 2016 Nature Neuroscience paper and a 2023 Cell Reports Medicine paper), so his publications were not wholesale removed.
Not a true/false call. Every claim is logged with its sources; read the exhibits below.
They removed all his published papers, all of his peer-reviewed, all of his work, all of his papers that are scientific papers. They removed all that from Wikipedia.
What the evidence says 01 / RECORD
False. Rogan says Wikipedia deleted all of Andrew Huberman's peer-reviewed papers. The live English Wikipedia article on Huberman still carries a 'Selected publications' section listing peer-reviewed papers with PMIDs (for example a 2016 Nature Neuroscience paper and a 2023 Cell Reports Medicine paper), so his publications were not wholesale removed. Wikipedia biographies routinely trim bibliography sections over time, which is distinct from a targeted deletion, and nothing supports a coordinated purge tied to any RFK Jr. remark.
