Like Lane, I also could saw the content security error, anyway... I looked
at the Meta-Wiki translate page to understand the template.
I completely agree that Wikimedians, specially WikiMed team and volunteers
are doing excellent work on Wikipedia and other projects. Other than
(English Wikipedia), I personally really liked the Wikidata WikiProject (
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_COVID-19), and
especially the Wikivoyage article (
https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/2019%E2%80%932020_coronavirus_pandemic)
About the banner (I am reading from the Meta-Wiki page)
" Wikipedia will remain online and available for anyone who needs a trusted
source of unbiased information." and "
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019%E2%80%9320_coronavirus_pandemic >> Add a
full link to the Wikipedia article in the respective language to the
translation."
-- Perhaps it is also good to note the Wikipedia Medical Disclaimer (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Medical_disclaimer) which says: "
Wikipedia contains articles on many medical topics; however, *no warranty*
is made that any of the articles are accurate..." or General disclaimers (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:General_disclaimer). The
possibility remains that in some languages information are not up-to-date,
or fully accurate.
Again it is really good to see extra-ordinary effort by Wikimedians who are
working in this area on different Wikimedia projects.
Thanks

Hello
Worth it if someone also took the time to craft us a message to relay on
social media. Maybe a good punchy visual reusing that site notice message.

Dear list,
Given the unfolding global events, the Wikimedia Foundations feels it is
important to reassure readers across the globe.
We'll be displaying a short message at the top of the projects
reaffirming
our commitment to keep Wikipedia and the
Wikimedia projects online, open
and free for all. Readers often turn to Wikipedia for neutral information
in times of stress. This is a critical moment for students who can't go
to
school, people who have to stay home with their
families, and anyone who
needs a trusted source of unbiased information.
We also want to take a moment to acknowledge the invaluable work of all
the
medical contributors on Wikipedia. Thank you for
keeping a close watch
and
keeping misinformation at bay. Coronavirus topics
have received tens of
thousands of edits by thousands of editors since the start of the
pandemic.
The article has been read more than 30 million
times, in English alone.
The message will be displayed just once to readers, and you can preview
the
banner [1]. The draft is in English but we want
this message to be
multilingual. If you have a moment, please help translate this banner
into
your language [2]. Thank you all, for your work
and efforts.
Stay safe, and wash your hands!
