Interesting, which urls are they blocking?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_Killer
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Virgin_Killer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_Killer?bypass_censorship
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Virgin_Killer&iwf=please_dont_censor_me
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=256646302
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=IDW_censors_wikipedia&action=submit&preload=Virgin_Killer

Blocking each and every way to access one article on MediaWiki is a bit
hard. Unless thay are actually reading the page content and so risk
blocking any page containing the words 'Virgin Killer'.
