[Wikimediaindia-l] Question for Hindi Wikipedians

[BalaSundaraRaman]

Thanks a lot for pulling up the data so fast, Frank.
So, it appears that, Tamil Wiki has a similar percentage as the Hindi Wiki.

Just wanted a minor clarification: does this take the automatically-created 
global accounts into account?

 "That language is an instrument of human reason, and not merely a medium for 
the expression of thought, is a truth generally admitted."
- George Boole, quoted in Iverson's Turing Award Lecture
