Announcements for December 2002
Wiktionary now has its own url and has moved to
wiktionary.org (
http://wiktionary.org/).
Wiktionary, a companion project aiming to be a multilingual dictionary and thesaurus linked to Wikipedia's encyclopedia articles, is starting up at
http://wiktionary.wikipedia.org/.
For
article count watchers, note that some longstanding drift problems, exacerbated recently by a buglet in the
Rambot, have been fixed. The usefulness of the count algorithm is still open to debate, but the numbers are now correct.
Wikipedia now has a
Google PageRank of 8/10. This is likely to bring in even more traffic and contributors to the site.
The
Swedish Wikipedia (
http://sv.wikipedia.org/) is now running on the
new server with a fully localized user interface. Also, a stub has been set up for
Greek (
http://el.wikipedia.org/); the user interface is not yet localized, but it's set up for Unicode and should work for inputting Greek text.
