Block depends on so many factors, depends on ISP you can see wide range of behavior, for me nothing is blocked since my ISP is IPM. This behavior is changing and that's worrying to me. Wikipedia was accessible using Irancell in Tehran but right now it's not. More worrying, upload.wikimedia.org is blocked so without proxy there is no image (except images in cache) anywhere in any wiki. People in Shiraz don't have access to any WMF wiki at all but as I said we need to check more deeply into this matter and start talking to the government or anyone useful ASAP. I will talk to some people tomorrow in a conference I will attend.

It had started with Wikimedia Commons and then upload.wikimedia.org (so
no
images) and now Persian Wikinews and I just realized except a few number
of
ISPs all WM websites are blocked everywhere. Obviously analytics can give more details.
I talked with legal team in Wikimania and asked them for a direct talk or any kind of negotiation with Iranian government to make things easier but It's going worse. they lifted block on CNN once Rouhani had interview
with
them two years ago.
Any ideas?
