| Mar 23, 2022 at 16:47 | comment | added | Philippe StaffMod | FWIW, I will say that from my experience working Trust and Safety and Community Advocacy at Wikipedia.... Wikipedia's Community Sustainability and Resiliance team (run by my old #2 there, the brilliant Maggie Dennis) is top notch. They no doubt that reached out to editors at risk to discuss their options, and the Russian wikipedia has always operated fairly carefully. | |

| Mar 21, 2022 at 14:54 | comment | added | gerrit | @ShadowWizardSaysNoMoreWar I hope the brave heroes who still edit the Russian language Wikipedia with relevant information from within Russia will have the tools to protect their privacy and know how to use them. Otherwise there is fortunately a large Russian diaspora in countries where they are mostly safe (but not perfectly, as evidenced by Russians murdered abroad by the FSB, so probably anyone editing those articles from anywhere should protect their privacy). | |
| Mar 21, 2022 at 14:47 | comment | added | Luuklag | Not that I want to involve myself in the debate regarding this issue, but your statement isn't completely correct @ShadowWizardSaysNoMoreWar. He was arrested in Belarus by a Belarusian organisation, whether that's better or worse then being arrested in Russia is to be seen. | |
| Mar 21, 2022 at 14:39 | comment | added | user152859 | For the record, Russia already arrested top Wikipedia editor, so it's much worse than blocking Wikipedia. Poor guy probably dead by now, but that's off topic. (Just commenting on the "threat to block the Russian language Wikipedia" part) | |
