The Russian branch of Wikimedia announced a few days ago that its head received a warning from Russia that it would be defined as a foreign country, so he said that the branch would be closed.
Wiki*** Russia calls itself a Russian non-profit organization that promotes the Encyclopedia Project and its community of authors and editors. The head of the association, Stantisl Kozlovsky, said that he had decided to close its Wikimedia a few days agoru, and said that documents are being prepared for the dissolution of the 15-year-old ** meeting.
Stanisl** Kozlovsky, who has worked in the psychology department of Moscow State University for nearly 25 years, told the Telegram news channel Ostorozhno Media that he received two documents from the authorities, a letter of dismissal for absenteeism and a letter of voluntary resignation, which he eventually chosen.
After his resignation, Stanisl** Kozlovsky voted unanimously with other members of the ** in favor of disbanding the organization in order to protect all involved. While the authorities may be completely **thea**, Stanisl Kozlovsky insists that the dissolution of the Wikipedia does not mean that the Russian-language version of Wikipedia no longer exists.
Since Russia's war in Ukraine last year, Russia's communications regulator, Roskomnadzor, has accused Wikipedia of allowing the dissemination of false and unreliable information about the war. The Russian authorities have long wanted to develop their own online encyclopedias to replace the biased Wikipedia.
