Congratulations to the swedish wikipedians!

Yesterday sv:wp reached 1 M articles. The one who
did the passing was a
bot
generated article of a butterfly
http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erysichton_elaborata.
The bot behind this article is Lsjbot who creates articles from the
database
Catalogue of Life
http://www.catalogueoflife.org/services/res/2011AC_26July.zip which
(complemented by other databases) which holds data of around 1.5 million
species. The bot genrates about 5000 new articles per day and has
generated
just under 400 000 of the sv:wps million and
continues...
The guy who runs he bot is a member of the Swedish chapters board
http://se.wikimedia.org/wiki/Kandidater_2013/Sverker_Johansson and is
in his
civil life a University teacher. In this capacity
he is also a guest
lecturer at the university of the Phillipines where he stayed the last
couple of months (and the bot was on hold). He is there active in
Cebuano-Wikipedia
http://ceb.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unang_Panid and
supporting
their local community, and he is now running his
bot on their wikipedia
as
well as on the Warai-Warai Wikipedia
http://war.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syahan_nga_Pakli. So perhaps at the end
of the
year these two language versions will also pass
the 1 million mark!
Anders
PS out other major botgenerating effort of all lakes in Sweden is also
making very nice progress, done 25% of all DS
