[WikiEN-l] A facelift for the Main Page: Wikipedia Day and 100,000 articles soon

[Daniel Mayer]

Several of us have been working on improving the Main Page and are pretty 
satisfied with the results. See

And also a before and after screenshot:

Comments about added improvements and edits are welcome.

It would be great if we could work on this some more and then go live with the 
new version on January 15th aka Wikipedia Day. It would also be great if we 
all concentrated on trying to make 100,000 articles by the 15th.

Speaking of which, a press release is also in order for Wikipedia Day.....

Power to the Wiki and Happy New Year!
