Extension now available to do this easily - and with three different skins. Localisation
now supported as well:
Will remain updated for future related actions (should your wiki decide to participate in
them).

My question is simple:
If I am running MediaWiki sites, and if I want to join that protest (to
raise awareness among my readers), what is the recommended *simple*
technical way of doing this? It would help if somebody who cared about
this could make a simple documentation on this (I guess one could simply
exchange index.php on typical small sites?). I am aware of
http://sopastrike.com/
but I wondered if there is a more wiki-specific message to use that
anybody might have prepared.
Also, as was noted at wikitech-l:
It seems Google has advised to serve a 503
(Service unavailable) HTTP
code during blackouts to avoid them influencing their search engine.
How would one do this in the easiest way?
Thanks,
Markus
