According to Zharkov, the initiative to “clean up” the Russian-language section of “Wikipedia” from the pages of the voice actors belongs to one person – the moderator of the online encyclopedia under the nickname “Sidiq from vocational school”. A user with the same name has been publishing on Twitter for several years with the hashtag #DubbingNoNeed.

Apparently, the removal of voice actors’ pages began back in 2016. The personal motivation of the initiators of the removal of pages from public access is unknown. They are erased from Wikipedia for insignificance.

At the same time, in the comments under the video, users unanimously supported Zharkov and spoke out against the unjustified removal of information from the encyclopedia. The majority condemned the existing mechanism of moderators’ work on a popular resource. Some commentators have responded with the hashtag #DubbingNeed.
