well it is doing it again, only partial access and it s including the wikinews servers this time with no access to the wikinews page. I vote conspiricy theory. Is it safeguarded against malicious flooding? ~~~~

In this case the donations page would have worked fine… we don’t always want a link though since some sitewide outages would leave that broken to. :)

No donation link? A wiki was down; are donations up?

I have a brilliant idea! From now on, our downtime screen should say, "This Wikipedia is broken. We recommend looking up this subject in your local library; while you're at it, kindly take down notes and add them to the Wikipedia article later."
