Turkey on Saturday banned hugely popular television dating shows under the state of emergency imposed in the wake of last year's failed coup, according to a decree published in the official gazette, AFP reports.

“In radio and television broadcasting services, such programs in which people are introduced to find a friend.... cannot be permitted,” said the text of the decree. The government had already indicated it was in favor of such a ban.

Turkey has also blocked all access to Wikipedia and banned television dating shows, adding to fears of a crackdown after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s victory in a referendum on enhancing his powers, AFP reports.

Turkey’s Information and Communication Technologies Authority (BTK) said it had implemented the ban against online encyclopedia Wikipedia.org with an administrative order.

Turkish state media said the ban was imposed because Wikipedia had failed to remove content promoting terror and accusing Turkey of cooperation with various terror groups.
