Wikipedia: One Million Articles!

Posted September 21st, 2004 at 06:58pm

A Wikipedia press release states that Wikipedia has now reached one million articles, that 2500 new articles are being added each day, and that 25000 changes occur daily. That is an incredible amount of information! The press release also announces a fundraising drive, and gives a nice encapsulated overview of the project. Congratulations to the team on this amazing milestone.

On a related note, an article at kuro5hin gives some insights as to how the Wikipedia has come to be as well-written and accurate as it is. An interesting glimpse at human dynamics, culture and technology.
