[Wikipedia-l] Congratulations are in order (an overlooked milestone)

[Mark Williamson]

At about the same time, the Georgian Wikipedia grew from around 17
articles to well over 100, and the Armenian Wikipedia grew from about
3 articles to well over 100. The Breton Wikipedia grew from 57 or so
articles to well over 100.

Other Wikipedias had a similar sudden growth just a little bit prior,
such as the Aragonese and Limburgish Wikipedias.

All of this growth occurred in the space of 1-3 weeks, and sometimes even less.
