Ahhhh Elian, I see: we need your article on the stub-gnomes even in English ... well I am trying to translate it into Italian, it is fun, but really quite a difficult task as it has many of those "fine meanings" that don't need translation, but you need to re-write the whole text giving the same meanings in the other language to it (I already wrote it once and then re-wrote .... but it still lacks something) .... so I suppose the litteral translation "stub gnome" in English does not work well ... maybe we should think about Snowwhite and her "dwarfs" - so these could be come the "stub-dwarfs" ;-)
So who are going to be the English writing stub-dwarfs that make some nice present to these articles "giving" a bit more information :-)
Well: I am not contributing much to wikipedias (I am more concentrated on wiktionary) ... simply because my home are "languages" ;-) and this mail is about them :-)
Ciao!
Sabine

I just realized that the English Wikipedia has articles on quite a number of wikipedia language editions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedias_by_language
But hey, isn't there more to say about it than just outdated numbers of articles or the writing direction? Doesn't each wikipedia have something unique, a special culture, notable events which are not milestones?
Spend a while to polish the article about your wikipedia to spare it the fate of rotting as a "wikipedia-related stub" in the cleanup department ;-)
greetings, elian
PS: In the german wikipedia these articles would probably have been deleted as irrelevant...ehemm...that's our specific culture
