The nameservers for wikipedia.org are broken. They put the wrong SOA record in the negative response, wikipedia.org != wikimedia.org.M vs P
Exactly.
The adminstrators of wikimedia.org were informed about this months ago but they don't seem to care. They fail to acknowledge the problem or to fix the problem. wikimedia.org are not alone in this. There are thousands on web sites that return the wrong answers to AAAA lookups. Meanwhile everyone wants resolver vendors to make the lookups work. We can't when the authoritative servers are broken. It time the users complained.
That's where I'm going with this, but specific information with a suggested fix is usually better than just pointing out that it's broken. Is it known what software and/or config causes this broken behavior?
