We seem to have lost access to paywalled content from SpringerLink and Nature. We're in communication with them to resolve this issue - updates will be posted in this ticket.
Our access appears to have expired so we need them to renew it.

I am not sure, if this is the action that is needed from me. I am anil1956 and have been on Wikipedia since 2005 or thereabouts. I edit Wikipedia very frequently and to be able to do that I need access to libraries. Yes, it is correct, that I have lost access to both Sprinter and Nature and even to Taylor & Francis. Please be kind enough to restore it for me. Thanks

As to T&F, it never was complete. E.g., we have access to this article at T&F, but not to this one.
For Taylor & Francis we only have access to content from three collections at this time, as documented here.
Somehow, I can access and download from Springer, but got "Bad Message 431 reason: Request Header Fields Too Large" message after click next button.
Nature is still not accessible.
I cleared cookies from oclc.org, nature.com, springernature.com, and wikipedialibrary.wmflabs.org, and also tried to access in incognito mode (i.e. no cookies, by default), and the “Access Collection” link leads to a Nature page that is unauthenticated & paywalled in all instances. Clicking “log in” results in an error. Screenshots attached.
Could you give some examples of content which is still paywalled for you? A quick spot check shows that I'm able to access and download content:
It seems that the download with Wikipedia Library link is showing up when I view a specific article—mea culpa.
Looks like all is good. 👍
But … I wonder whether this is related to our issue or whether springerlink.com is down completely at this time … maybe we should wait a moment …
This does look like a completely unrelated issue! Let's hope their site comes back up soon.
Indeed. Their website is back up now, and I can confirm that I can also access and download non-free content from SpringerLink. Thanks a lot for looking into this!
