I actually think it likely is "roughly" correct, I'm looking it up now, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia we said it was 10 Trillion in 2013 and we've grown quite a lot since then.
I checked the latest dump, it is 22 GB compressed, so 24 trillions bytes in text is possible.

I think it would be worth cross checking wth analytics if 24 trillion bytes is correct. It sounds a lot to me.

I like this, needs a "the" before "English" though.

Just leave this as a question I think.

I feel like it would be good to make light of the size of the QR code. Something like "You'd need 27 square kilometers to print a QR code of Wikipedia" or something more engaging!
