Translation of the German text:

With temporary injunction from the Landgericht [an intermediate court] Lübeck of 13 November 2008, obtained by Lutz Heilmann (Member of Parliament for the party Die Linke), Wikimedia Germany is prohibited from "directing the internet address wikipedia.de to the internet address de.wikipedia.org" as long as "de.wikipedia.org contains" certain statements about Lutz Heilmann. Until further notice the service of wikipedia.de in its current form thus has to be terminated. Wikimedia Germany will appeal the decision.

Wikimedia Germany is not the provider of the "Wikipedia" made available under de.wikipedia.org and has no influence on the contents of the online encyclopedia. Rather, Wikimedia Germany is a non-profit charity (Eingetragener Verein) for the advancement of free knowledge which merely informs about the application of Wikipedia. As is explained on the site, the provider of Wikipedia is the Wikimedia Foundation, a foundation incorporated in Florida, U.S. and located in San Francisco.
