I have a question on new wikipedias. When a new wp is started, is it simply a blank space, or are there a few stubs for the translators to use? I was wondering, if the "100 necessary articles" were included as a basis for each new wikipedia, giving each a base size of at least 100 articles, and it would give them a head start in articles.
There's an ongoing project to provide simplified versions of the 1000 articles every Wikipedia should have. These are not imported automatically to new wikis, but can be taken from http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_articles_all_languages_sh... and translated.
