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.

With all the hype about English hitting 500k, I just want to point out another milestone that is being overlooked.
A while back, Amikeco and some others began pressing for an Ossetian Wikipedia. It took a while, but they finally got it, and in a very short time, they passed the 100 article mark. This is especially impressive for a language that few people have heard of. Great work for a small group of committed editors.
I just want to congratulate them on this achievement, and hope that it inspires some of the other small Wikis to pick up speed and grow.
Good work.
