I've been on the lookout for a good overview news article about the Paris attacks, then I remembered that Wikipedia often does a good job of synthesizing an overview from various sources in the days after a major news event.

I'm posting this to HN because I imagine there are others out there who have forgotten that Wikipedia can be a good resource in cases like this.

Wikipedia does a fantastic job of curating recent events, thank you for posting this. While it's difficult to access on mobile, I can also recommend reading the Talk page to better understand how the page is developing as news comes in.

Thanks for that, it cleared a lot in my head in terms of actual facts. Sometimes is hard to read media when disasters like this happen, because they are too abstract about the events that happened.
