Islamic Fun is a 1999 UK video game whose "Resistance" minigame let players throw rocks at Israeli tanks. Through 2015 the opening said the game's trivia questions "seemed designed to promote an Islamist world view." Today that characterization is gone from the opening, though the word survives five times in the article. A reader today learns the game let players throw rocks at Israeli tanks and does not learn Wikipedia's own assessment that its questions were designed to promote an Islamist world view.

The opening as it read in 2005
Islamic Fun is a controversial package of computer games targeted at Muslim children, developed by the UK -based firm Innovative Minds . All the games in the package involve answering a series of multiple choice questions on a range of Islamic themes. Three levels of questions are available, for children of 5-7 years, 8-10 years, and 11 years and older. The game became controversial not only for the obvious anti-Zionism of "The Resistance", but also for some of the questions themselves, which seemed designed to promote an Islamist world view. Examples included " Mustafa Kemal , the hater of Islam, forbade the use of Arabic in Turkey, banned the hijab and closed down the Aya Sofya Mosque in Istanbul . Which is it?" and "Ignoring the hand over agreement, the Christians turned the beautiful Mosque of Córdoba , in Muslim Spain , into a Cathedral (1238). Which one is it??"1
