Wow that sounds big.

Not as big as my -- oh, forget it.

So either the Chinese are not as smart as I'd thought, or the media is much lazier than I'd thought. They're getting the same level of coverage now for "unblocking" the Chinese-language Wikipedia as they got for unblocking the English one, which was considerable. Even though this should be a much smaller story, as far as the Western press is concerned.

I'm not sure they even understand the difference, to be honest! (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/mad.gif)

BEIJING -- China has unblocked access to the Internet encyclopedia Wikipedia after a ban of more than a year, in a move Chinese Web surfers and free speech advocates welcomed Friday. But some watchers of China's extensive censorship regime had doubts the site would not be banned again.

WHILE MANY are hailing Wikipedia's reintroduction into China as a victory of the web over Internet censors, they clearly have not noticed that the online encyclopaedia has deleted an important date in history.

Without fanfare -- in fact, there was no official announcement made at all -- China decided to stop blocking its citizens' access to Wikipedia, the collaborative online encyclopedia. The move hints that China may be loosening its control of public access to the Internet and other forms of media.

After a yearlong ban on Wikipedia, China lifted the block to allow Internet users in the country to access the online encyclopedia, although some pages are still inaccessible. The Ministry of Information has not commented on whether the blocked pages are a result of technical problems or because they contain information the government considers objectionable. Beijing blocked access to both
