We send a single web request to Wikipedia from 4 regions on our own schedule and time the response. We do not see inside Wikipedia's systems, do not use an account or real transaction, and are not the same signal Wikipedia's own team has access to. Treat this as one external data point, not a verdict. We started monitoring this service on 8/8/2026 (1 of 14 days so far, 692 of 500 checks). We show a full track record once we have enough continuous history. Check back soon, or monitor your own site continuously with realuptime. Read the full methodology.
