:Oggetto: Ogg: Wikipedia in Sicilian language?

:''Hi, and sorry in advance for using English, I just thought you might like to know about these Wikipedias in languages I was told you might know (Sardinian, Sicilian, and Corsican):''

:http://sc.wikipedia.org/ - limba sarda

:http://scn.wikipedia.org/ - lingua siciliana

:http://co.wikipedia.org/ - lingua corsa

:''There aren't very many articles yet, so they need new contributors because whoever was working on them before has left.''

:''All the text there is released under the GNU Free Documentation license; you can edit any page, without even registering (although it is recommended), etc, and there aren't even any ads.''

:''Several examples of Wikipedias in different stages of development:''

:http://nv.wikipedia.org/ - first stages of development; Navajo language

:http://kw.wikipedia.org/ - getting off the ground; Cornish language

:http://ga.wikipedia.org/ - getting bigger; Irish language

:http://nn.wikipedia.org/ - bigger still; Nynorsk language

:http://lt.wikipedia.org/ - almost 1000 articles; Lithuanian language

:http://ku.wikipedia.org/ - bigger still; Kurdish language

:http://wa.wikipedia.org/ - nearing 5000 articles; Walon language

:http://fi.wikipedia.org/ - nearing 10000 articles; Finnish language

:http://he.wikipedia.org/ - just over 10000 articles; Hebrew language

:http://da.wikipedia.org/ - just over 20000 articles; Danish language

:http://es.wikipedia.org/ - just over 30000 articles; Spanish language

:http://sv.wikipedia.org/ - just over 40000 articles; Swedish language

:http://fr.wikipedia.org/ - almost 55000 articles; French language

:http://ja.wikipedia.org/ - just over 75000 articles; Japanese language

:http://de.wikipedia.org/ - almost 150000 articles; German language

:http://en.wikipedia.org/ - almost 360000 articles; English language

:''It has been proven that all Wikipedias, in any language, follow approximately the same growth pattern. If you asked people 2 years ago, they would never expect the English version would have almost 360000 articles by now; if you asked the Japanese people they would not expect it to have as much as it has, and so on.''

:''The existance of a Wikipedia in a language is a huge boost to the amount of information in that language accessible on the internet, and for some languages Wikipedia is their first encyclopedic resource *ever*.''

:''I hope you'll consider the possibility of assisting one of these Wikipedias.''

:''( please note, it is preferred that for the Sardinian Wikipedia, you write in Limba Sarda Unificata, and for the Sicilian Wikipedia, to write in Lingua Siciliana Unificata
