10 millionth article posted on Wikipedia
Posted by James Mace at 16:28 on 31 Mar 2008
Alison Cork, wikipedia, 10 millionth article, communityWikipedia, the largest online community driven encyclopaedia, celebrated this week after its 10 millionth article was posted at the weekend. The article in question was a biography of a 16th century English goldsmith and painter called Nicholas Hilliard. The article was by a user named Pataki Marta.
But before you click to have a look at the entry, it might want to know first that it exists in the Hungarian annex of Wikipedia. This of course shouldn’t be much of a surprise to Wikipedia fans. While English is the number one language on the site, others have quickly grown to nip at its heels. Some of the other big languages include German, French, Polish, Japanese, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish. Marathi, Tagalog, and Cantonese are also said to be experiencing rapid growth.
Despite the site’s numerous critics for accuracy, it is obvious that people love the idea of such a resource being out there for them to access so freely and contribute so easily and openly. Can Wikipedia now double its count? We’ll just have to wait and see.
