current situation is that our two servers are both having problems.
: [[Pliny]], our main server which hosts the webserevr for the non-English Wikipedia and all the databases, crashes irregularly; the causes of these crashes are unknown (likely a hardware problem). During upgrades, Pliny was left in a state where a post-crash reboot would not bring up the database server again, which caused today's downtime.
: Our second server, [[Larousse]], has recently been upgraded but is currently completely unavailable -- for all we know, the server might have caught fire. Jason from Bomis will drive to the server location to verify the server's state.
: The good news is that once both our servers are up and running reliably again, things should get significantly faster. So please bear with us as we address these problems, and be sure to make a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation if you haven't already so that we can keep up with ever-increasing traffic. (see [[Wikipédia:Dons]], and also [http://leuksman.com/misc/donate Brion's notebook fund]. Brion Vibber spends much of his time administrating Wikipedia's servers with no direct compensation from Wikimedia or Bomis.)
