Hello all
Katherine - on behalf of the wikimedia foundation - has released a statement:
We regret and condemn the decision by Turkish authorities to block access to Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a vital source of information for hundreds of millions of people around the world, containing essential historical, cultural, and scientific knowledge. Restricting access to this source violates our fundamental rights to information, education, and inquiry.
We are committed to ensuring Wikipedia is available to the millions of people in Turkey who rely on it every day. We urge the Turkish authorities to reconsider this course of action, and will be pursuing judicial review of this decision.
Thanks! Isla
Excuse the brevity, sent from my iPhone.
