Counting by 1,000s
For the top wikis section, we've been updating the list when a wiki reaches the next 500 articles. What do you guys think about just making it 1,000? The 500s don't feel as impressive to me -- "more than 58,500 articles" doesn't sound as good as "more than 58,000 articles". Also, I think it gives people the impression that we count by 100s; I regularly fix the page when someone adds a 700.

The next 1,000 articles is an exciting goal -- and for many of the wikis on this page, it's something that comes up pretty regularly. Would anyone object if I rounded everything down to 1,000s? -- Danny (talk ) 18:57, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Laugh out loud
I was doing my monthly check on wiki articles (I don't know why I'm interested), and the Turtledove wiki has 4,999 articles. . . Should I give it a star or wait? Thanks, TimeMaster Talk Main Contribs 22:03, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Just wait; its time will come. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 22:43, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok. It is very strange. . . Thanks, TimeMaster Talk Main Contribs 18:30, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Non-English wikis
Polish shadowrun wikia has 4000+ pages. Can it be included here? --Dinki 19:43, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, the requirement is 2,500 articles or more. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 01:27, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * How to do it? Where should I apply? :) --Dinki 20:08, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Just add it to the article; there isn't any need to apply. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 20:42, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, this page is just meant for the English wikis. I don't think there's a page for Big wikis on the Polish version of Central, but it would be a great thing to create! -- Danny (talk ) 21:01, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

WikiIndex
More of these (including this wiki) should be on http://www.wikiindex.org/Category:Wiki_with_20%2C001_to_50%2C000_pages (and the categories each side of that?). — Robin Patterson (Talk) 04:07, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

New Icon for 10,000+
Perhaps a new icon for wiki's attaining an excess of 10,000 articles or more? Square for 2500, Star for 5000, something new for 10000. Bonziiznob 14:51, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

LyricWiki
Since LyricWiki joined with a freakin' 880,000 articles, maybe that one should be added? Mark (Tedjuh10) - Talk 23:10, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

World of Warcraft
The information still says that it is the biggest wiki even though it is now outranked by two wikis. Solar Dragon  ( Talk ) 08:37, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

The Sims Wiki
Shouldn't The Sims Wiki be one of them? They are a very big wiki.--Bleeh 02:24, January 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * The Sims Wiki has 3,700 pages -- a nice big wiki, but not one of the biggest. They're listed on the page. -- Danny (talk ) 02:41, January 5, 2010 (UTC)
