As of yesterday, Wikipedia is inaccessible from most of China. It appears to be inaccessible from 11 out of 12 points in China. It was blocked for a few days back in June or so, but this block appears to be broader than the last one. Hope this one gets resolved quickly too.

While it is impossible to know exactly what is going on, I think the story about the blocks is not correct and we should save alarmist signals for those cases when it is really needed.
This is my take on it now: http://www.chinaherald.net/2004/09/internet-filters-cause-capacity.html
