<ref>precognitive vision</ref> Does that work? I don't have proof that its true, just a strong suspicion. It seems unlikely to me that two million articles that have gone 7-odd years without creation are going to be heavily trafficked by editors once they are created en masse.
They're being created with considerable human review and the active involvement of the relevant country WikiProjects, which should help.
a fair number of them, according to what I've seen and the debate on the proposal, are still not heavily modified ([[Nemacolin, Pennsylvania]] is an example).
I think a lot of that is that they look more substantial than they are, because of the data being rendered as prose. There are still many US town articles that have been substantially expanded but still have an unedited blob of Rambot output in there.
