Use Noscript. It's just Javascript, it is super easy to block and you should already be doing it regardless.

I'm surprised at how many people don't know this!

Yeah I'll do it to uh, preserve the spirit of what they're doing because their heart is in the right place, but for a big blackout hype it's kind of a joke.

You don't even need Noscript. Just hit ESC after the page first loads but before the Blackout thing opens.

The page that explains the blackout also explains how to view Wikipedia during the blackout, so it's not like they're trying to hide the fact that it's easy to get around.

I'll admit the "stop" thing is pretty easy to figure out, but I honestly can't believe that the vast amount of Wiki users know anything about scripts. I'm sure people are still taking notice.

Well, the fact that I've already had to inform five people today of how to stop the Wikipedia blackout, it's obvious people really don't know. So the blackout will work fine.

I wonder if there's a place where you could learn about that.

I bet Wikipedia has an article on scripts.

You can also just use Google Cache, although you have to search for each particular article you want.

Oh nvm. You can just hit the stop loading option before the page redirects and it's all gravy.
