Actually, I always assumed that the number of articles template included absolutely every article, including vandalism CSD articles and stubs.
"Number of articles" does indeed include every article, which is defined as everything in the main namespace *except* for redirects and pages which have no internal links (ie, completely unwikified material)
It does count disambiguation pages and stubs, though I get the impression that the first one of these is more by chance than design.
