Wikipedia was banned without forewarnning on the 19th and shocked
internet users.

No conclusive rationals were drawn for this move, but it was believed
to be an order issued by the National Security Unit of the government.
Users from both Mainland and China worried that if this website is
banned for good, it would be the biggest crisis for 'Chinese knowledge
accumulation'.

Internet users originally thought that this was only a partial
suspension, however after investigations by various users, it was
found that most provinces in China could no longer access to Wikipedia
since the 19th.

Mainland users thought that it was again the 'masterpiece/great work'
by the Central information Networt (CERNET?), however further
verification with the ISP revealed that it was the National security
unit who made the order. Some mainland users described the unit as
'Secret agency from the "eastern unit" (note: used to be the unit in
imperial China Great Palace of which only castrated men worked there'

This was the third time Wikipedia got banned in China. Last year it
was right before the 15th aniversary of the June fourth incident when
the CERNET banned the site without any forewarning. It lasted for 3
weeks, not until the appeal 'If you do not open this website,
information on this encyclopedia would gravitate more toward
pro-Taiwan stance' by the Wikipedian crew that site got reopen again.

Last September the bigger BBS in China SMTH was banned when students
discussed about social movements and reform. After that these
students migrated to Wikipedia and BBS to continue their discussion
and caused Chinese Wikipedia suspended for 3 days.
