List of Wikipedia pages banned in Russia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Within the Russian Federation, a number of Wikipedia articles have been banned. Some of the banned articles have resulted in fines levied against the Wikimedia Foundation.[1] As of July 2023[update], there have been a total of 7 fines totaling 8.4 million rubles.[2] The Wikimedia Foundation has appealed these fines in court,[3] and has lost.[4] Due to the enabling of HTTPS encryption on all Wikimedia sites,[5] individual Wikipedia articles cannot be blocked by governments without blocking the entire Wikipedia site for that language (for example, see the block of Wikipedia in Turkey).
