This page is for the announcement of milestones on the Wikimedia projects. If you want to make such an announcement, please post it here and translate it if you can.

Recommended article-count milestones are 100, 500, 1k (1,000), 2k, 5k, then 5k increments to 20k, 10k increments to 100k, 50k increments to 200k, 100k increments to 1M (1,000,000), 500k increments to 2M, 1M increments to 10M. Other milestones, such as page edits or registered users, can also be announced here, but typically only the powers-of-ten levels of these statistics are considered significant enough to announce.

Wikimedia Forum provides a place for general discussion.

  • Wikipedia ends the year with 49,311,393 articles in 301 languages (plus 2 language wikis with 0 articles), which constitutes a 5% increase in articles over the past year.
  • Wiktionary ends the year with approximately 30,407,727 entries in 153 languages (plus 21 language wikis with 0 entries), which constitutes a 10% increase in entries over the past year.
  • Wikiquote ends the year with approximately 215,548 content pages in 76 languages (plus 14 language wikis with 0 content pages), which constitutes a 7% increase in content pages over the past year.
  • Wikibooks ends the year with approximately 261,910 book modules in 99 languages (plus 22 language wikis with 0 book modules), which constitutes a 4% increase in book modules over the past year.
  • Wikisource ends the year with approximately 3,919,791 text units in 185 languages (comprising 3,893,221 units in 68 individual language wikis and an additional 26,570 units in 124 languages at the Multiligual Wikisource — 7 languages have content in both places), which constitutes a 8% increase in text units over the past year.
  • Wikinews ends the year with approximately 220,678 articles in 34 languages, which constitutes a 5% decrease in articles over the past year.
  • Wikiversity ends the year with approximately 106,919 learning modules in 70 languages (comprising 104,695 modules in 17 separate language wikis and an additional 2,224 modules in 53 languages at Wikiversity Beta), which constitutes a 7% increase in learning modules over the past year.
  • Wikivoyage ends the year with 104,975 articles in 21 languages, which constitutes a 6% increase in articles over the past year.
  • Wikimedia Commons ends the year with approximately 51,425,130 media files, which constitutes a 18% increase over the past year.
  • Wikispecies ends the year with approximately 648,331 content pages, which constitutes a 15% increase over the past year.
  • Wikidata ends the year with approximately 53,622,641 items, which constitutes a 27% increase over the past year.
  • Wikimedia Incubator ends the year with approximately 109,487 content pages across 1,016 test wikis in 726 different languages (including any test wikis that have been opened but are currently empty), which constitutes a 1% increase in content pages over the past year.
  • There were 13 content wikis created in 2018, 3 more than were created in 2017.
Note: The article counts listed above for Wikipedia and Wikivoyage are actual counts collected at 00:00 UTC on 2019-01-01. The article counts for all other projects were interpolated between counts collected at 12:00 UTC on 2018-12-31 and 12:00 UTC on 2019-01-01. All page counts are based on what MediaWiki sees as constituting an article (or content page), as reflected at each wiki's Special:Statistics page. Language counts include closed (but not deleted) wikis and count "Simple English" as a separate language when such a wiki exists within a project. The test wiki counts for Beta Wikiversity and the Incubator were checked in the early hours of 2019-01-03.

  • The Chinese Wikiquote has reached 10,000 total pages (after dropping below that level in February of this year when the wiki was recounted from scratch).

  • The Russian Wiktionary has reached 1,000,000 entries.
  • The Serbian Wikinews has fallen below 60,000 articles (currently at 56,260), and below 100,000 total pages, as a new (temporary) admin has been cleaning up the wiki after a decision to remove the "Време" ("Weather") pseudo-namespace (whose pages were in the main namespace).
  • The Ukrainian Wikiquote has reached 90,000 page edits.
  • Almost all Wikimedia content wikis have gotten a new administrator called (the local equivalent of) "Abuse filter" <pedantic>(in cases where that string has not been translated into the appropriate language, the name in a fallback language [usually English] has been used)</pedantic>; this has caused the Asturian Wikipedia, Piedmontese Wikipedia and Uzbek Wikipedia to reach 10 administrators for the first time, and ten other wikis to go back up to 10 or 20 admins after falling below one of those levels sometime in the last few years. (This change was only visible in each affected wiki's list of admins [Special:UserList/sysop] and not in the user creation log [Special:Log/newusers], and was only seen on wikis that were not already actively using the AbuseFilter extension [because otherwise the user would already exist, as it does on this wiki] — which caused much confusion. Interested parties should note that this newly created user is a "system user" not associated with any login account and is a side effect of a sysadmin running a maintenance script to detect certain technical problems in existing abuse filters; unless a wiki community explicitly chooses to make use of the AbuseFilter functionality, the new system user cannot actually perform any on-wiki actions, such as blocking users. See the Phabricator tasks T209565 and T212268 for more details — especially this comment by Daimona.)

  • The Limburgish Wikinews is open for editing after being created as a standalone wiki four days ago, with content imported from the test wiki at the Incubator; the article count, which currently stands at 51 articles, will almost certainly increase significantly when the wiki is counted from scratch the first time at the end of this month.
  • The Shan Wikipedia is open for editing after being created as a standaline wiki four days ago, with (nominally) 759 articles imported from the test wiki at the Incubator.

For older news items, see the 2018 archive or the archives for earlier years listed at the top of this page.

Projects by number of content pages

The tables below are arranged chronologically by the original launch dates of the major content projects, within two main groups: "interlingual" projects (different wiki for each language) followed by "multilingual" projects (all languages on the same wiki). The older Wikimedia projects (such as Wikipedia) tend to be larger than the newer ones, but note that these tables are not arranged by number of sub-wikis nor by total article count (across all languages).

For the interlingual projects, within each table the individual language editions are arranged by milestone level, and then chronologically by the date the milestones were first reached.

Note: You can go directly to the table for Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wikiversity, Wikivoyage, Wikimedia Commons, Wikispecies, or Wikidata.
