That's how it sounded to me too. Besides that, what's the advantage of having Wikipedia as an onion vs visiting the site from Tor over HTTPS? Wouldn't that mean you're just adding this onion proxy to your circle of trust and hoping they aren't giving you altered articles or logging accessed articles? How is that better than accessing Wikipedia directly (via Tor and HTTPS)?
