Hi all,
I was waiting for one of the active Malayalam Wikipedia editors to announce it here .. with no such signs, let me do the privilege on their behalf. :)
I am delighted to announce that Malayalam Wikipedia ( ml.wikipedia.org) crossed 20,000 articles 2 days back. Interestingly an article stub on "Reality" by Abhishek Jacobhttp://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B4%89%E0%B4%AA%E0%B4%AF%E0%B5%8B%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%A4%E0%B4%BE%E0%B4%B5%E0%B5%8D:Abhishek_Jacob is the 20,000 th article to be created. The 15,000th article was born almost a year back in Nov 2010. Malayalam Wikipedia currently has 261 "active users", 17 admins and 4 b'crats. http://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Statistics
There was a coordinated effort fby the Malayalam Wikipedians to organically reach the 20,000 article milestone before Onam and the target was achieved 4 days ahead of "Thiruvonam" Apart from the discussion pages, the ML Wikipedians used social media networking sites like Facebook groups ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/mlwiki/ ) and twitter extensively to coordinate and encourage this campaign. This will be also an interesting case study of Wikipedia discussions happening off-wiki and the use of networking sites to promote Wikipedia.
Congratulations and best wishes to all the ML Wikipedians behind this achievement.
Regards Tinu Cherian

Congratulations All Malayalam Wikipedians. What a wonderful way to celebrate Onam!
Malayalam Wikipedia is a shining example of building a community and driving quality of content. Now, it's leading the way in using social media to encourage participation and promote projects. Hats Off!
Happy Onam!
