I have received mostly positive feedback for the minor design modifications I made. A comment regarding the Cyrillic version of the name used in the background: it is intentionally based on the Ukrainian version rather than the Russian version because at the moment Ukrainian is higher in the list of largest Wikipedias. For the same reason, the Hebrew name instead of the Yiddish name, the Arabic name instead of the Farsi or Urdu names, etc.

Hoi, I have had a look at the proposed change to the portal page and I do not like the background with all the languages. It is too cluttered to my taste. It is also a distraction from the 10 big languages that are being obscured in this way. I appreciate the effort but I do not like it. Thanks, GerardM

At about the same time, the Georgian Wikipedia grew from around 17 articles to well over 100, and the Armenian Wikipedia grew from about 3 articles to well over 100. The Breton Wikipedia grew from 57 or so articles to well over 100. Other Wikipedias had a similar sudden growth just a little bit prior, such as the Aragonese and Limburgish Wikipedias. All of this growth occurred in the space of 1-3 weeks, and sometimes even less.
If someone could go and update the www.wikipedia.org template page accordingly ...
