X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.619) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Wikipedia went live four years ago today, on January 15, 2001. Amazingly, this crazy project we've gotten ourselves into is still on the web, not _completely_ filled with Pokémon stubs and crackpot rants, and even remains free of advertisements, supported by donations and a lot of hard work. Presented for your pleasure: http://nostalgia.wikipedia.org/ This is a dump of the English Wikipedia page database from December 20, 2001 -- the oldest complete copy I was able to find. It's actually running on the current MediaWiki software, so as a conversion necessity some pages have been altered to make links work correctly. (Due to limitations in the original conversion script, this version may actually contain some data which is missing or corrupted in the main database history on en.wikipedia.org.) You can find even older, though more fragmentary, bits of Ancient Wikipedia using the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine: http://web.archive.org/web/20010331173908/http://www.wikipedia.com/ Happy Editing, everybody! - -- brion vibber (brion @ pobox.com)
