Wikipedia back in China

Apologies for the long hiatus, but my first post in weeks is to bring good news — Wikipedia’s foreign language editions are “back” and accessible in the PRC. That is, all except for the Chinese (zh.wikipedia.org).

Users in the PRC probably noticed access went away a few days ago to the entire universe of Wikipedia/Wikimedia content. After my notifying the Wikimedia tech team about the outage, it was simply a matter of them restoring the previous DNS lookup scheme and things work fine.
