| |
Posted on Monday, September 20 2004 @ 21:57:13 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck |
The online encyclopedia Wikipedia announced that the one millionth article was posted today on their website. Wikipedia is currently the world's largest encyclopedia and its fastest-growing, with articles under active development in over 100 languages.
Each day people from all over the world add nearly 2,500 new entries, along with ten times as many updates to existing articles.
Wikipedia now ranks as one of the ten most popular reference sites on the Internet, according to Alexa.com. It is increasingly used as a resource by students, journalists, and anyone who needs a starting point for research.
Wikipedia's rate of growth has continued to increase in recent months, and at its current pace Wikipedia will double in size again by next spring.
