replace '_' with '-', and append the #Wikipedia anchor.

should be

I won't hope those beasts block answers.com too, but I bet they are not good at English, if not, I want to tell them, 'no one can stop us learn if we want'.
PS: .NET is good at this job, haha.

I was thinking of authoring a Wikipedia mirror for those in countries with restricted Web/Internet access.
After all, it's not too hard... just make a HTTP connection to Wikipedia, correct the links and transfer to the original client.
The only problems I can forsee deal with editing pages and uploading binaries. -
You mean a proxy server?

Let's not forget who's actually building the Great Firewall of China. Cisco.

I still cannot understand why our government blocks the wikipedia site, since this site doesn't contain anything related to pornography, democracy and civil liberty etc.

But it does - well the last two at least. It also carries information on issues such as Taiwain and Nepal which the Chinese government considers sensitive. -

I do not understand what the government did in many way. If I really want to know what's the democracy(irresistible force), there are Google, MSN, Yahoo and Encyclopaedia Britannica, each one can help me find democracy out. So we don't understand it, that does not mean we are stupid enough, but does mean the government is unreasonable, and a trouble maker. -

Yeah, it is kind of pointless to try and stop people from finding this stuff out. The government is stuck in the mindset of totaliarianism, control everything and everyone. If anything, the government should show the people why their way is better, instead of restricting access to knowledge. (Not that Wikipedia is all that great at knowledge, in light of many recent scandals) -

In fact , I never said anything against the government in Chinese, I am afraid of it, but it does teach me that 'thought before speaking'
, you know, I am only one person, how could I change China which my deeply loved country, so the first thing I need to
do is take care of my business.

i think one reason for blocking wikipedia is for stoping people from contributing to it . for example you might have access to or know something that makes the government uncomfortable. yes u can do it through blogs or other means too but here u are certain to find audience.
but i m glad that ur government is slowly opening up and becoming more open. -

Sad to say that our government is opening up economically but not politically.
