Does anyone know more about the article on an illegal drug they are referring to?
Sounds like it’s just Russian Wikipedia and not the other languages or projects. Anyone
able to verify?

Today, the Russian Federal Service for
Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom,
Information Technologies and Mass Communications instructed all Russian
internet providers to block all user access to Wikipedia. All involved
parties are aware of the development. I am not sure whether only
ru.wikipedia.org will be blocked, or all WMF projects. In the latter case,
if you are going to travel to Russia, you will need to gen an IP exempt flag
in advance in the projects you are going to edit.
Cheers
