Probably a temporary blip but Wikipedia won't load for me.
Can someone else try for me?

Seems to be ok now, .Griff
I seem to be stuck on "connecting to bits.wikimedia.org....."
I can't get it to load

At least it's not just me then.
Loads straight away for me, which dns are you using? I've got Idnet as primary and Norton as secondary.
It's not a DNS issue. The page starts loading but times out when it attempts to connect to bits.wikimedia.org (I think that's the bit responsible for the donations message you see at the top of each page unless you've closed it)
I've tried IDNet,OpenDNS, Norton and Google DNS with Safari but the only time I can get through is on FF but it's not consistent and doesn't seem to matter which DNS I'm using.
Working fine for me too.
Seems ok again now. The Hamster must have fallen off for 10 minutes.
Working but slow here.
Working at light speed for me, the page was instant. Perhaps I have it cached.
[EDIT] Navigating around the site it is remarkably fast to such an extent I wonder if they have upgraded their infrastructure which might have caused the issues?
Back up to speed here too.
Instant connx here.
Working ok here.
Instant here. :)
The "issue" was resolved by about 2pm but cheers for the replies guys.
glad to hear you can now reach that mountain of trivia again ;D
