[Wikimediaindia-l] Assamese wikipedia crossed the 1000 article milestone

[Shiju Alex]

Dear All,

Assamese wikipedia has crossed the 1000 article milestone yesterday (2012
January 7). Congrats to all Assamese wikipedians who contributed to
this. Started
in 2002 June 2 <http://as.wikipedia.org/wiki/?diff=1>, Assamese wikipedia
is the first Indic Language wikipedia. Assamese wikipedia will celebrate
its 10th Anniversery this year June.


I remember last year this time Assamese
wikipedia<http://shijualex.wordpress.com/2011/02/27/indian-language-wikipedias-2010-statistical-report/>was
having just 300 articles and just one highly active user. The
excellent
efforts put forward by some of the senior community members using various
social networking sites are helping Assamese wikipedia to grow its
community. Now it crossed 1000 article milestone and has more than 10 high
active users. Hope community will be able to add more members to its crew
this year.
