    Wikipedia has been in semi-continuous operation since [[January 10]], [[2001]].  There are frequent outages.  Downtimes are usually short, but no [[full text search]] has been available for many months - another way that '''Wikipedia''' falls short as an [[encyclopedia]].  See [[History of Wikipedia]] for more.
