Weird Gloop turned off its wiki web servers for 13 hours and still served about 94% of page views from cache

Primary, and the one outage with a measured cost.

Fact-check

A2 Reported status overstated · Count · verdict: holds · the status word overstates the evidence

The operator's own blog carries both parts verbatim: webservers off for all wikis, a 13-hour downtime, and about 94% of wiki pageviews served correctly. The 13-hour outage is the operator's own record of its own action, but the 94% is a self-reported figure with no stated method, which the model caps at A2, so "confirmed" overstates it.
