Wow this struck a chord, it seems I was not the only one who was not aware of this story!
Some additional info:
@teclista@mas.to shared that the protagonists are on the fedi as well (of course they are!):
https://mas.to/@teclista/113872887620692513
@__nate__@mstdn.social wrote about the episode in several papers (for example: https://networkcultures.org/cpov/2011/01/15/spanish_fork/) and also a book: https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/W/bo19085555.html
@rwg@aoir.social also wrote about the episode in a book:

"in the light of US tech oligarchy setting its sights on Wikimedia Foundation" was referring to things such as https://hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff/113868325221306547
Finally, I don't have a soundcloud to promote, but I'd really like to see the first paid position for Trust & Safety on the fediverse get funded:

@rra@post.lurk.org @teclista@mas.to @__nate__@mstdn.social @rwg@aoir.social I asked if someone could confirm that I'm a Wikimedia Telegram group and someone shared this link https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Advertising_on_Wikipedia
