Use Firefox with no--script and Wikipedia set to untrusted. Wikipedia will work

Do they need a bail-out?

[Fedoraman]

Just hit the stop loading button once the page resolves before the -script runs to put up the "blackout" screen.

I believe they met their fund-raising goal just a couple of weeks ago. They still have no advertising. I donated because it seems almost every time I research something, It's usually their site that has significant info...

 

Their stance today is in concert with other internet sites to protest SOPA and PIPA...

[A-DONIS]

[youfoundjake]

They and numerous other companies are protesting SOPA.
