Following several weeks of poor performance, the Wikipedia website gradually returned to reasonably normal performance last week. After various efforts to diagnose problems and test solutions, MediaWiki developers managed to implement several changes that significantly improved the situation.
Line 25 ⟶ 21:
Since Wikipedia traffic continues to grow, and any signs of this growth leveling off have generally been due to performance limitations, the potential for future problems remains unless the server system can continue to accommodate the growth. Comments from developers and [[Wikimedia Foundation]] officials continued to emphasize that more servers will be needed. Since the Foundation still relies heavily on donations, the upcoming February fundraiser is an important element in keeping up with the demand for Wikipedia content.
