So, if someone from Andijan wanted to edit:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_2005_unrest_in_Uzbekistan from Andijan
without fear of being caught by the friendly local police; they'd need to install the Tor client to help protect their IP anonymity and make it more difficult for their network location to be identified.
Setting up a username and password on Wikipedia also helps hide their IP addess (along with Tor)...
But (in theory) the actually post isn't secure from interception (and blocking?) - unless the wiki server is running https.
Do any Wikipedias run https?
BTW: I am sorry for displaying my ignorance about these things - It is a blissful ignorance, the result of living most of my life in a more-or-less civilized, more-or-less democratic country. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever want help with branding or marketing ;-)
