This is excellent news, well done to everyone involved!
It's actually got me thinking a little. I wonder if it would be possible to
do a study of the, say, 50 largest Wikipedias and get a handle on which
articles are shared across all of them. This could then be used to analyse
where there are gaps that might usefully be filled - both in terms of
quality and content. Could be based around which articles are considered
the most important in each Wikipedia, akin to the list of vital articles on
EN:WP.
Is this something that could easily be done? Would it be useful?
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
