Talk:Nas Daily

This page is subject to the extended confirmed restriction related to the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 26 January 2026

Subject: Formal Request for Review and Unprotection of Page: Nuseir Yassin / Nas Daily

To the Wikipedia Administration and Arbitration Committee,

I am writing to formally request a review of the page protection status and the current content of the Wikipedia article titled "Nuseir Yassin" (and the related "Nas Daily").

As the subject of this biography, I am compelled to reach out because the article, in its current locked state, stands in direct violation of Wikipedia’s core policies regarding Biographies of Living Persons (BLP) and Neutral Point of View (NPOV).

For the past two years, the page has been effectively "hijacked" by a small group of anonymous editors who have locked the content to prevent neutral updates. This has resulted in an article that is factually outdated, culturally misleading, and overwhelmingly biased.

I respectfully request the page be unlocked for editing by established, neutral editors, or that the following critical issues be addressed immediately:

1. Erasure of Identity (BLP Violation)

The opening sentence previously identified me correctly as an "Arab-Israeli vlogger." Editors have since removed the identifier "Arab," referring to me solely as "Israeli." As an individual who publicly identifies as both, removing my Arab heritage is a misrepresentation of my identity. Furthermore, the term "Israel" appears 37 times, while "entrepreneur" appears zero times, creating a politicized caricature rather than a biography.

2. Violation of Neutral Point of View (Undue Weight)

The "Reception" section is disproportionately negative. It focuses heavily on political criticisms regarding a "normalizing agenda"—a framing used to negatively spin my efforts to promote peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Meanwhile, the perspective of my 70 million followers and the positive community impact is entirely absent. A biography that contains zero mentions of the word "fan" for a social media creator is fundamentally unbalanced.

3. Material Omissions and Factual Errors

Because the page is locked, significant professional achievements and factual updates are missing:

* Nas.io: There is no mention of my software startup, Nas.io, for which I raised $40 million to support creators and entrepreneurs. This is a primary aspect of my current career.
* Outdated Stats: The article lists outdated metrics, such as the progress of my "life percentage" t-shirt (currently listed at 35%, whereas it is factually at 43%).
* Personal Life: Significant personal history, including my long-term partnership with Alyne Tamir, is excluded or misrepresented.

4. The "Frozen" State

The current indefinite protection of the page protects inaccurate information rather than protecting the page from vandalism. It prevents the community from correcting demonstrable errors.

I am asking for the page to be opened to neutral editing so that it can reflect the truth: that I am an Arab-Israeli entrepreneur with a complex career, not merely a political symbol. Wikipedia should be a source of truth, not a tool for a small group of editors to enforce a specific political narrative.

I look forward to a prompt resolution to ensure this biography meets Wikipedia’s standards for accuracy and fairness.

Sincerely, Nuseir Yassin (Nas Daily)

//ON Behalf — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-56211-1 (talk) 09:53, 26 January 2026 (UTC)

For context, Nas had released an Instagram reel (as well as on other social media) about the state of the article https://www.instagram.com/p/DT94HIiElcy/. I had left some comments there, and I will add those comments here:

1. The photo can be updated as long as you submit a new one. The 2018 photo is a studio shot that is professionally taken and submitted onto Wikimedia Commons with permission to be used freely. Logically a new photo can be submitted as well. Note that such uploads are usually done with the knowledge of the subject, be it them knowing directly or indirectly.
2. The removal of ethinicity is part of a wider effort to indicate only the nationality of everyone, not just you or anyone controversial. There is also a guideline to refer a person by the nationality in the lead section only unless the ethnicity is notable as well. See MOS:ETHNICITY.
3. Dating news are usually left out from articles unless it is notable, i.e. not just dating but have been known to have an outsized influence on your life. Notably, the article mentioned the ex-girlfriend by her role as a collaborator. Other than the announcement that Nas made about Aija, were there news about Aija? What role have Aija played in Nas Daily? If one searches 'Nas Daily girlfriend', who turned up more? See WP:GOSSIP.
4. On nas.io, it is probably because the news of it has slipped from the orbit of the editors who were updating your article. How wide spread was the launched published in the news media worldwide? Are there news article about nas.io? If so, please share here.
5. On page protection, this is not targeted at you. Checking the protection logs, it was protected as part of a wide arbitration enforcement on anything related to the Arab regional issues. (See WP:CT/PIA) There was an uptick on disruptive edits on articles relating to the entire region when the military activities in Gaza increased that it was ultimately decided that all related articles will be page protected for stability. The article can still be edited directly, but only by experienced editors to mantain some form of editing stability. New editors or unregistered editors can still make suggestions on the accompanying talk page to update the article. The suggestions as long as there are sources accompanied are usually followed up quickly.

Now, with respect to the specific asks here:

1. Asking for the page to be opened (I will address this point first). Your ask is to drop the page protection. As an admin, my answer is no, this will not be done at least by me. Other admins may differ, can be discussed further. Administratively, the page protection was done under a general arbitration enforcement to introduce content stability. (WP:CT/PIA). Dropping the page protection will allow not only 'positive edits', but also the bad ones (and frankly, before the page protection was introduced permanently, the article was vandalised multiple times and necessitated a couple of page protections), and as the next section is showing, there may be more controversies to be included as well. Whatever content that you want in, put it up here on the talk page with sources, and we (may not be me, may be other editors as well as the responses are done asynchronously) can work out to see how the content can be placed in the article. Aside, there are also WP:COI, WP:PAIDEDITING, WP:PROMOTIONAL, WP:OWN.
2. Erasure of Identity: This has largely being edited to refer you as "Israeli-Palestinian" by another editor. See #Edit request 26 January 2026.
3. The "Reception" section is disproportionately negative. This is the result of the sources being used. If you want a balanced POV, indicate what you want added here, and with sources.
4. Material Omissions and Factual Errors
   1. Nas.io, I would love to do so earlier, but a Google search showed only two relevant sources: jpost.com had been largely blocked for me until now, and adobo magazine's seems to be a regurgitated press release (which we don't use as sources in general). Any other sources that we can use?
   2. Outdated Stats. Upload another image is the answer. This can be done by you. The 2018 photo was professionally done and with a VRT ticket, which means it had gained permissions either from you or the photographer to be uploaded. Someone has found a 2023 photo, but it a cropped of wefie.
   3. Personal Life: We typically don't include dating information per WP:GOSSIP. Personally, it has had lead to some headscratching moments when no sources could be found for further details. Alyne was mentioned in the Career section though.

Hi @Robertsky, I also saw the social media video. Thanks for looking into this issue. I'm not familiar with this subject in general, but think Nusseir has a valid point about ethnicity. Here his ethnicity is related to notability so it should have been included. Also, could you check Dalal Abu Amneh for comparison, another notable Palestinian citizen of Israel? Whenever I fix it someone quickly removes her citizenship info. I.e. the opposite of what is happening with Nusseir. Should we get protection for that article as well? TheJoyfulTentmaker (talk) 17:26, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

@TheJoyfulTentmaker  Done on the page protection. – robertsky (talk) 17:52, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

And on the ethnicity, indeed so, which is why I didn't challenge what Day Creature had done. – robertsky (talk) 02:27, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

whelp. just found through the edit history that there was undisclosed paid editing done in August 2025. If this was the version you wanted, you can forget about it. See WP:PROMOTIONAL. – robertsky (talk) 17:27, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

Nas has now been posting to his socials how people have "usurped" his Wikipedia article to smear him. -- Cdjp1 (talk) 22:06, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

I was planning to answer all of your queries, but another editor already did so. They seem to be completely correct. Wikipedia is NOT RUN BY WORD OF MOUTH or social media, such as TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, you may talk about your dating relationship immensely in your social media accounts, but it will not be added into Wikipedia, for it is not supported by a reliable source, such as news outlets. This is since social media as a source is extremely unreliable as a whole. Moreover, if a section appears to have disproportionate viewpoints, it is due to majority of available reliable sources are primarily negative, not because your Wikipedia article was “terrorised”. Again, as robertsky previously stated, if you want it to be more in your favour, prove that it deserves to be. State some reliable sources that are more positive, and it can help balance this out. Also, about your point on Grokipedia being superior, AI, which Grokipedia is based off, is running on HUMAN data, similarly to Wikipedia, so it will also have problems. No encyclopedia is ever perfect.

For whoever would like to see the video where NasDaily stated his hatred for Wikipedia, here is one of it: https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSushGqRq/

NasDaily will actually almost certainly not even see this message, but perhaps this can help explain to NasDaily fans and supporters, or newer Wikipedia editors on the truth behind NasDaily’s complaints. If I made any mistakes, please don’t hesitate to reply to me about it.

Most importantly, THIS ARTICLE WAS NOT WRITTEN OR REWRITTEN TO SMEAR NASDAILY IN ANYWAY!!!

Page heavily sanitised, potentially curated, sources to be reviewed:

I have significant concerns over the bias in editing this page. Controversies seem to have been gradually edited out over time and details of his relationship break-up have also been deleted. Many of the sources below should be included for balance and there should probably be a 'controversies' section based on the number of these across at least three examples.

Some potential sources:

@Mountaincirque you are an EC editor, barring any active sanctions against you, if any, you are able to write anything you want on the article directly. – robertsky (talk) 04:01, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

Note, I have incorporated some of the stuff here. Do edit over if the balance of views isn't there or there are other corrections or updates to be made. – robertsky (talk) 06:07, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

@Robertsky thanks, I personally think it's better in cases like this to make editors aware that something suspicious is going on with a page first, meaning that any corrective edits will hopefully stick and heading off edit-warring. I will review your additions and keep an eye on the page. Mountaincirque^talk 08:30, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

Please dont make broad sweeping statements without suggesting what to be change. Most of Nas' asks have been responded to above. – robertsky (talk) 18:12, 27 January 2026 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for your efforts to address this criticism, Robertsky and Mountaincirque, but I have a hard time believing that the call to abolish Wikipedia really comes from our failure to name the girlfriend. Wikipedia has been catching a lot of flak from Israeli media since the September 2025 RfC decided that Wikipedia should state that a genocide is happening in Gaza. The media coverage banner at Talk:Gaza genocide seems longer every day. Perhaps it is time for a wider discussion about this. Surtsicna (talk) 13:09, 28 January 2026 (UTC)

@Surtsicna The girlfriend angle is pretty weak. There are at least 5 reasons that the anon indicated above, which one of those may be more persuasive than that. But might have been a sixth (UPE?) as well, who knows? – robertsky (talk) 03:09, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

What is the link to this video? I don't think that there are any claims in this article that are not backed up by valid sources, he may not like the truth being reported but he can't do anything about it, Wikipedia is not LinkedIn, it's an encyclopedia, so the controversies about their extractive/exploitative work in the Philippines and his stances on Israel/Palestine are valid to include here.
