TL;DR Summary

A Russian court has fined the Wikimedia Foundation, which owns Wikipedia, 2 million roubles ($24,510) for not deleting "banned content" related to the Russian military. This is the seventh fine imposed on Wikimedia for not removing prohibited information. The latest penalty was for not removing an article about a military unit that contained "classified military information" about its location, composition and equipment, including information related to the progress of what Russia calls its special military operation in Ukraine.
