It seems that PRC has indeed blocked Chinese Wikipedia. I reckon (and
hope) that it is only temporary, as today is June 4 and usually many
foreign websites are inaccessible on this particular day. But some
also suspect that it may be because of some artciles relating to
Taiwanese independence written by Taiwanese contributors.
Currently Chinese Wiktionary is still accessible from mainland China,
and we are calling all Chinese Wikipedians that have read this message
to go to
http://zh.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:%E5%95%A4%E9%85%92%E9%A6%86#%E5%B0…
for discussion.

China goverment maybe blocked wikipedia, because today is the 15th commemoration day
for the Tiananmen Square Event.
So far it is not sure whether Wikipedia is blocked, more infomation is needed for
confirmation.
I'm an administrator for Chinese Wikipedia in P.R.China.
