What will Russians do, if Wikipedia decides to turn off the Russian segment off and restrict the IP access, let's say, tomorrow?

Suicide en masse 100%
>kikepedia
OH NOOOOOOOO NOT THE PEDOPHILE RUN FEDORA TIPPING CENTER
Nothing of value would be lost. Russians would be better off without the mutt propaganda.
>implying wikipedia is somthing important
Please, I know normies that know wikipedia is full of shit. The only down side is Russians couldn't look up the early life on people
Kikepedia is still being used to look up for knowledge. And yes, i know, the facts are being manipulated, still it's one of most important knowledge sources.
So, what do Russians have instead of wiki? The Great Soviet Encyclopedia?
Buy real encylopedias like the old days?
It has shittons of mirrors
>restrict the IP access
That's impossible, because you can download offline versions.

Library Genesis, which is worth a lot more in terms of knowledge capacities.
Since we are talking about the topic, does anyone know of any alternatives to Wikipedia?
I have been thinking for years how much of our collective knowledge will be lost after internet databases and their back ups have been destroyed. I think we should make a list on important subjects and try to preserve as much as of that knowledge on paperbacks. We will have to live through Dark Ages.
Books. Wikipedia is just a collection of summaries.
they will use wikiless.org which all people should be using anywayz
Yes, but reading books takes time. It's good to have a collection of summaries with sources to the original material, it's very helpful for a quick search or even extensive research. Instead of wasting time reading an irrelevant material, you can read a summary and see if the original material is relevant to your subject.
Roskomnadzor is already talking about blocking Wikipedia
Yes, the kids will have to actually search for info and not copypasta everything in their papers.
Can't they start removing the articles?
Thank you for the link.
There will be a lot of work needed to separate knowledge from analysis of sitcom episodes.
Will have to be used for sure and it's a good thing. But not a fast one.
Thank you for the link.
It's a faster way, sure. This is why most of the current generation has become reliant on fast information - the trip to the library (heh, a English word i had to recall from my brain instead of wiki) will be a painful and long one for them.
The English Wikipedia compressed is 20.5 GB for only the text. With images it's 50 GB. They probably download Wikipedia in every language daily.
Wikileaks used as propaganda? Never /s
Now that's a interesting development.
DELETE THAT ARTICLE ABOUT THE SPECIAL OPERATION AGAINST NAZIS IN UKRAINE.
(((the great soviet encyclopedia))), comrade yes!
The eternal boomer, always outdated and keeps whining about youngsters.
I'm saying we should read wiki to find out what the original material is about before we waste time and energy reading it just to find out that it's irrelevant.
