Someone is flooding the server with an exceptionally high number of
requests/s since about 02:00 GMT this Saturday. It seems that this is
mainly affecting the Apache server, while the database itself is still
up and running.

<p>I hope these flooding requests are not coming from my
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ausleuchtung.ch/geo_wiki/">http://ausleuchtung.ch/geo_wiki/</a> . It still works by finding
Wikipedia articles on the map by coordinates from the articles
themselves via the MediaWIki API, but it does not work today by
finding articles via OSM <i>wikipedia</i>, <i>wikidata</i>, and
<i>wikimedia_commons</i> tags, as Overpass API is not answering.
And I am getting e-mails about it.</p>

<p>This web-application works for all language versions of
Wikipedia, not only major languages, but all for which functions
the MediaWIki API.<br>
