Summary
Wikimedia Foundation
nonprofit content web
The Wikimedia Foundation (WIKIMEDIA) — the non-profit that runs Wikipedia and its sister projects (Wiktionary, Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata, and more).
What it's used for
- Serving Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects worldwide from the Foundation's own, deliberately lean, self-operated infrastructure.
Notable
- A small announced footprint serves one of the most-visited sites on the internet — Wikimedia runs efficiently on donations, with no ads or trackers.
- First-party only: this is the Foundation's network, not a host for others.
Interesting
- Wikimedia operates its own caching data centers around the world rather than relying on a commercial CDN, unusual for a site of Wikipedia's scale.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 440 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
