My bad. I think I was wrong, [[Category:WikiProject_India_articles]] doesn&#39;t include the sub categories and it may be true that we actually have more than 1 lakh pages. <br>I saw on toolserver that the Replication lag is very high, changes newer than 6 days, 16 hours, may not be shown. Thanks to User:AroundTheGlobe &amp; User:VasuVR for correcting me.<br>

<br>Congratulations, once again, folks !!!! :)<br><br>Btw not in any mad race... But...<br><br>Hindi Wikipedia has around 1,01,988 articles. [[WP:INDIA]] lists some 8,442 categories too. So with the addition of another ~9000 articles, WikiProject India will be largest &quot;Indic Language Wikipedia&quot; by the number of articles.  <br>

<br>While we have 8,442 categories marked as relevant to [[WP:INDIA]], I can bot tag all articles in those categories with User:TinucherianBot [1] . If I generate the list of categories and give, who can help me vet them and remove the possible false positives? Once we have a clean list of categories, we will tag the articles in those articles with the bot. <br>

Yes, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:WikiProject_India_articles" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:WikiProject_India_articles</a> shows mentions as  101,279 total. <br>But if you look at [[Category:WikiProject_India_articles]], you will see subcategories like [[Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in India]] , [[Category:India articles needing attention]] where the articles are duplicated in various subcategories.<br>


<br>The near accurate number must be from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:India_articles_by_quality" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:India_articles_by_quality</a>  only.<br><br>-TC<br>
