Wikipedia says:

  Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis.

  The block was made by Masti (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is Open proxy.

    Start of block: 18:42, 13 July 2017
    Expiration of block: 18:42, 13 July 2018

   You can contact Masti to discuss the block. You cannot
   use the "Email this user" feature unless a valid email
   address is specified in your account preferences and
   you have not been blocked from using it. Your current IP
   address is 2a01:4f8:141:608d::2, and the blocked range is
   2A01:4F8:0:0:0:0:0:0/32. Please include all above details in
   any queries you make.

Interestingly they are blocking the entire /32 which probably means
all of Hetzner at least at that site. Which probably means they are
not using a tor-specific block list here.)

Unfortunately I don't have a non-tor-node server there to cross-check.

Tor node is 'fastlane'.
