Recep Tayyip Erdoğan - Erdoğan blocks Wikipedia

Time: Saturday Apr 29, 2017

Place: Turkey

Details: On 29 April 2017 Erdoğan's administration began an internal Internet block of all the Wikipedia online encyclopaedia site via Turkey's domestic Internet filtering system.

In response, Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales replied via a post on Twitterating, "Access to information is a fundamental human right."
