@Andreas: Censorship! Thats interesting --but my understanding is that Wikiipedia is fine in KSA, except for some visual content that is being blocked.
Not exactly.[1][2] ;)
Yes, this too, but people always manage to work around it ;) In general it is accessible and better than the censorship status in other countries (Syria!), and the government is investing in increasing Wikipedia Arabic content, so a lot could be done to expand readership and editor base with the current status, even if it isn't perfect.
