Thanks for confirming 13mil is enough.

I didn't have the extension installed. It looks a lot better now. Thank you! 

There are still a few weird looking things around templates, but I'm importing enwiki-20130403-templatelinks.sql now so hopefully that should fix things.

Thanks again.

Some pages are not included in this dump, e.g. user and user talk pages.
You don't need those for display of the articles.  A quick count of the
titles in the stubs file shows 13 million or so pages so you're all
good.

The templates are included in the pages-articles dump.  Are you sure you
have the ParserFunctions extension enabled?
