Hi all,
My team is doing some background research in to Wikipedia article creation
right now.[1] One question I'd like answer is which Wikipedias are
currently (i.e. this year) running bots to create many articles.
I know that Lsjbot has run (or is running) on Swedish (sv), Cebuano (ceb),
and Waray-Waray (war). It seems to me that, by looking at the stats for new
articles per day,[2] Dutch (nl) and Vietnamese (vi) Wikipedias might have
also been running bots? Am I wrong?
I'll be posting more about our article creation research work soon. We'll
need feedback from non-English Wikipedians in particular, since as a team
we only have extensive experience creating articles on enwiki.
Many thanks,
