An analysis of Syrian internet censorship shows Wikimedia sites among the top 10 censored domains. See Table 5 on page 6. The data they're analyzing is the filtering proxy logs from October 2011, so a lot's changed in our systems since then; for instance, the section on page 7 regarding HTTPS traffic might be completely inapplicable to us now. But I figured it was worth passing around. Paper: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1402.3401.pdf , found via http://boingboing.net/2014/02/18/detailed-analysis-of-syrias.html .
