Dear All,
Assamese wikipedia has crossed the 1000 article milestone yesterday (2012 January 7). Congrats to all Assamese wikipedians who contributed to this. Started in 2002 June 2 http://as.wikipedia.org/wiki/?diff=1, Assamese wikipedia is the first Indic Language wikipedia. Assamese wikipedia will celebrate its 10th Anniversery this year June.
I remember last year this time Assamese wikipediahttp://shijualex.wordpress.com/2011/02/27/indian-language-wikipedias-2010-statistical-report/was having just 300 articles and just one highly active user. The excellent efforts put forward by some of the senior community members using various social networking sites are helping Assamese wikipedia to grow its community. Now it crossed 1000 article milestone and has more than 10 high active users. Hope community will be able to add more members to its crew this year.
