Oh, thanks for the report. IP blocks suck more than DNS meddling...

It seems IP of WMF wikis is being blocked so AFAIK it doesn't really
depend
on domain name.

IIRC we used to have the alternative URL
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikinews/fa/wiki/
in order to access
but it seems that these were turned into redirects, probably when the

switch happened.
Would it be an idea to not make them redirects but return the content
on
the wikimedia domain, or, even better, on the wikipedia domain (and
maybe
any of our domains) as well?

no

more details.
I talked with legal team in Wikimania and asked them for a direct

or
any kind of negotiation with Iranian government to make things

It's going worse. they lifted block on CNN once Rouhani had

them two years ago.
Any ideas?
