About Wikipedia

Wikipedia, the collaborative encyclopedia, is a global knowledge hub curated by volunteers. With articles spanning diverse subjects, it's a go-to source for accurate and accessible information. Wikipedia empowers users to explore, learn, and contribute to a shared repository of knowledge, fostering an inclusive platform for the curious and informed.
Global Monitoring
24/7 monitoring from multiple global locations to detect issues instantly.
Real-time Analytics
Advanced analytics and machine learning to predict and prevent outages.
Community Reports
User-reported issues combined with automated monitoring for complete coverage.

This page shows the current status of Wikipedia based on a combination of real-time automated monitoring and user reports. Unlike services that rely solely on user reports, Entireweb uses its own proprietary web scanning technology to actively test Wikipedia response times and availability - helping detect issues earlier, before they become widespread outages. Reports are continuously collected from users worldwide and combined with our automated scanning data to give you the most accurate and up-to-date status picture.
