There is a very good change that somebody of the Dutch wikipedia soon will
be able to give the first real interview soon for a important dutch
magazine (a real one, on paper) about Wikipedia and Wikipedia NL.
I would like to know some numbers and general information about
wikipedia if possible to give good information about wikipedia.
1)
The project in general; i know of course that Jimmy Weals is the person
who has give us Wikipedia and pays for everything. I know that he is
the CEO of Bomis (TM). I do not understand how it is possible that he
makes any money whit his website
www.bomis.com
If that is, non of youre business, be happy that hey pays for it, i
understand.
2)
There is still no "formal wikipedia", no real organisation or legal
structure. Is it still the intent that something like that will be done?
3)
www.wikipedia.org is still a "American/English" website and not a
neutral portal. Is it still the idea to do something about that?
4)
The English Wikipedia; how many unique visitors a day does it get?
How many different people on a typical day are working on the English
wikipedia? 50 ? 100? 400?
5)
For the Dutch Wikipedia, we have a Nedstat counter on the main page that
gives us some limited information. It only counts page views, not unique
visitors and mostly counts the traffic of the Wikipedians i think. Are
there other, better logs that i can receive about the traffic to
Wikipedia NL?
6)
I suppose the English Wikipedia has give more interviews; any
suggestions?
