Really? Good to hear it's just an ineffective censorship attempt then.

There even is such a meme as "encyclong", that's what the Wikipedia article for vikings turned into after one such cloning with replacing wiki- (no difference between V and W in Russian) with encyclo- .

Damn that's funny.

I don't think there was an attempt, "bans original" is a hallucination by the author.
