Following an attack on several Wikimedia projects that comprised a large number of accounts, Wikis are now back to read and write access. Compromised accounts made automated mass edits across pages with the edit summary "Закрываем проект", among potentially other edits.
The issue was identified and fixed. Many functions have gone back to normal.
