I'm afraid it's a little worse than that. The following is an announcement from
Wikipedia's founder:

Jimbo: In a little while, you'll find out that your userboxes have all been
deleted. Well, they're in safe hands. If you want them back, you'll have to
write...ONE MILLION ARTICLES!

Number Two COUGHS.
      
Jimbo: Sorry. ONE-HUNDRED BILLION ARTICLES!

(with apologies to
http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine/clarke/38/scripts/Austin-Powers.htm , and
Jimbo of course...)
