Hi Ian, you did a great overview!
I propose also to look at some quality indicators because just article numbers cannot say if people will read the contributions. There are content benchmarks like the "1,000/10,000 topics every wikipedia should have" lists, and some ideas to look up readership.
I posted my remarks on the blog here http://www.greenman.co.za/blog/?p=1980&cpage=1#comment-373655
Cheers Ingo

Hi
Here's another African language Wikipedia update: http://www.greenman.co.za/blog/?p=1980
Thank you, Ingo. I found myself agreeing with everything you said in the blog comment. It is perhaps worth pasting on this mailing list as well, as it would reach more people.

Amazing analysis by both Ian and Ingo! This is the best I have seen so far of trying to find the real gaps in knowledge. Thanks you both.
Excuse the brevity, sent from my iPhone.
