The #OpenStreetMap Wiki wiki.openstreetmap.org is currently unavailable due to planned upgrade maintenance. We'll have it back online as soon as possible - thank you for your patience!

UPDATE 20:00 (UTC): The upgrade of the wiki is taking longer than anticipated.

The OpenStreetMap Wiki upgrade has been completed but the site is sluggish due to a DDoS onslaught from AI-scraper bots.
@osm_tech sigh. Time to install anubis (pow check before entering) and/or nepenthes (ai tarpit)?
@osm_tech Thanks for your work... for those who urgently need to look up something on wiki just now, there is a workaround at https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/openstreetmap-wiki-is-really-slow/129284/2
OpenStreetMap Wiki is really slow

I’m finding the test version works better for me for reading https://test.wiki.openstreetmap.org/

@mnalis @osm_tech an offline version would be useful in case of low connectivity or outage. The last version is date of may 2023.
I'm using it for holiday or quick check for key values.

@F4FIA @osm_tech Well there is recent mediawiki dump at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/dump/, so one could set up mediawiki and import that... But it is complex and slow.

So using ZIM (whose update is overdue as you notice) is indeed faster and easier: just pick a reader from https://www.openzim.org/wiki/Readers and download openstreetmap-wiki* (or any other ZIM!) from https://mirror.download.kiwix.org/zim/other/

@mnalis @osm_tech yes, I'm using zim version
@F4FIA @osm_tech hopefully offline ZIP of wiki.openstreetmap.org will get updated in a next few months: https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues/1115#issuecomment-2834046395 #OSM #osmwiki
