Re: [Wikimedia-l] Amazon Echo' use of Wikipedia; CC license compliance?

[Yongmin H.]

I tried quite a lot (around 10 times) and succeded to get one saying ‘here’s 
something I found from Wikipedia.’ I have it recorded, but uploading it 
fails... Will try later.

 The current (full) answer is
 
 'Edward Joseph "Ed" Snowden, the American computer professional former
 CIA employee, and government contractor who leaked classified
 information from the U.S. National Security Agency in 2013.'
 
 Now obviously there could be -lots- going on behind the scenes, for

 Bing would allow that if it is really from them, but who knows) and so

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Let's set up a Tor onion service for Wikipedia

[Yongmin H.]

FYI: Editing through tor is blocked for logged in users too, unless you
have `ipblock-exempt`. (It's included in admins and IP Block Exemptions.)

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Let's set up a Tor onion service for Wikipedia

[Yongmin H.]

Nope.

Tor users needs `ip block exempt` or `global ip block exempt` to edit.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IP_block_exemption seem to say so too. 
("In highly exceptional circumstances, an editor may be permitted to edit 
anonymously, via Tor or another anonymizing proxy.")

That's something local community has to decide and when they decide to do so,
