Is Wikipedia
down?
A measured response. With the limits in view.
Wikipedia responded to our server.

This is a homepage observation from one server, not a worldwide outage verdict.
What this checks
The multilingual Wikipedia landing page. Individual language editions, article pages, editing and Wikimedia tools can behave differently.
If Wikipedia still will not work for you
Try the exact article and language edition you need. Read access and editing are separate capabilities. Wikimedia’s official dashboard can report maintenance or editing restrictions while the landing page still responds.
Try the affected page from another browser and network. Compare the exact HTTP response with the guidance in our troubleshooting guide. A restriction on automated checks is labelled blocked; it is not proof of an outage.

How to interpret this page
Each record is a server-side GET request, with one bounded retry for selected failures and up to five redirects per attempt. Duration includes DNS and redirects. We do not render the page, log in, test transactions or probe from independent regions. A homepage can respond while another product component is broken. Read the full methodology and report misleading results to the operator.
