Hello, Persian Wikipedia (fa.wikipedia.org) which recently celebrated its 20th birthday just passed its 1,000,000 article milestone.
Many volunteers have built, contributed, protected and loved this wiki for the past two decades and here's to many more decades to come.
It has been a bumpy road but providing a free source of information to more than 130M Persian language speakers has always been a pleasure, especially when the concepts of fact and truth are under threat like never before.
Persian Wikipedia is being viewed by around 30M people monthly and has had 350M page views every month while only ~1,500 active editors [1] and ~35 admins have been keeping it alive and protecting it from all types of harm.
[1] Users making more than five edits in the past 30 days https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/fa.wikipedia.org/contributing/active-editors/n...
Here is to volunteers of Persian Wikipedia
Truly, an impressive community, working in difficult conditions.
Kudos to the Farsi Wikipedia!

This seems somewhat poignant given that User:Mardetanha, who probably had a significant hand https://diff.wikimedia.org/2016/08/01/digest-farsi-wikipedia-milestone/ in this achievement, was recently globally banned by the WMF (see current Signpost issue, News and Notes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2024-04-25/News_and_notes ).
Can anyone shed light on the background here?

Congratulations.
This seems somewhat poignant given that User:Mardetanha, who probably had a significant hand https://diff.wikimedia.org/2016/08/01/digest-farsi-wikipedia-milestone/ in this achievement, was recently globally banned by the WMF (see current Signpost issue, News and Notes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2024-04-25/News_and_notes ).
Can anyone shed light on the background here?
Regards, Andreas

Congratulations!
We made a tweet at Basque Wikipedia to celebrate it: https://twitter.com/euwikipedia/status/1782832871373234627
@Wikipedia or @wikimedia didn't say a word. Another lost opportunity.

Hello, Persian Wikipedia (fa.wikipedia.org) which recently celebrated its 20th birthday just passed its 1,000,000 article milestone.
Many volunteers have built, contributed, protected and loved this wiki for the past two decades and here's to many more decades to come.
It has been a bumpy road but providing a free source of information to more than 130M Persian language speakers has always been a pleasure, especially when the concepts of fact and truth are under threat like never before.
Persian Wikipedia is being viewed by around 30M people monthly and has had 350M page views every month while only ~1,500 active editors [1] and ~35 admins have been keeping it alive and protecting it from all types of harm.
[1] Users making more than five edits in the past 30 days https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/fa.wikipedia.org/contributing/active-editors/n...
Here is to volunteers of Persian Wikipedia

Congratulations on the creation of the 1,000,000th article! 🥳
This is an achievement for the Persian Wikipedia community and a testament to the dedication of its editors and contributors.
