Wikipedia is **w blocked in Turkey, according to news reports.*
Turkish authorities blocked all versions of Wikipedia in any language in the country through an "administrative measure" and did **t give a reason, BBC reported (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-39754909).*

In the past, Turkey has blocked Facebook and Twitter following protests or terror attacks.*
The monitoring group Turkey Blocks found that (https://turkeyblocks.org/2017/04/29/wikipedia-blocked-turkey/) Wikipedia could **t be reached in Turkey starting at 8 a.m. local time. The group **ted that the kind of administrative measure used here often precedes a full court order to block a site in the coming days.* Read more...
