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.

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.

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 On Thu, Apr 25, 2024 at 2:58 PM Valentin NASIBU &lt;irnasvalentin(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote:
