Editing History of Wikipedia (section)

====2010====
On 24 March, the European Wikipedia servers went offline due to an overheating problem. [[Failover]] to servers in Florida turned out to be broken, causing [[Domain Name System|DNS]] resolution for Wikipedia to fail across the world. The problem was resolved quickly, but due to DNS caching effects, some areas were slower to regain access to Wikipedia than others.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bergsma |first=Mark |date=24 March 2010 |title=Global Outage (cooling failure and DNS) |url=http://techblog.wikimedia.org/2010/03/global-outage-cooling-failure-and-dns/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100327123357/http://techblog.wikimedia.org/2010/03/global-outage-cooling-failure-and-dns/ |archive-date=27 March 2010 |access-date=30 March 2010 |publisher=Wikimedia Technical Blog}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Perez |first=Juan Carlos |date=25 March 2010 |title=Wikipedia Suffers Global Collapse |url=https://www.pcworld.com/article/192410/wikipedia_suffers_global_collapse.html |url-status=live |magazine=PC World |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100329132858/http://www.pcworld.com/article/192410/wikipedia_suffers_global_collapse.html |archive-date=29 March 2010 |access-date=30 March 2010}}</ref>

On 13 May, the site released a new interface. New features included an updated logo, new navigation tools, and a link wizard.<ref name="New features">{{cite web|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:UsabilityInitiativePrefSwitch |title=New features |publisher=[[Wikipedia]] |access-date=6 September 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100822062045/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special%3AUsabilityInitiativePrefSwitch |archive-date=22 August 2010 |url-status=dead  }}</ref> However, the classic interface remained available for those who wished to use it. On 12 December, the English Wikipedia passed the 3.5-million-article mark, while the [[French Wikipedia]]'s millionth article was created on 21 September. The 1-billionth Wikimedia project edit was performed on 16 April.<ref>[[tools:~emijrp/wikimediacounter/onebillion.png|Total edits in Wikimedia projects – 1 billionth edit screenshot]].
