Sorry for the lousy formatting of the userboxes; I was lazy. In essence, I wrote a short bio, then found userboxes, and decided to just use those to say everything. This might get cleaned up eventually, but not promises. I know the Userboxtop formatting exists, I am just not currently using it.

Flashback to Wikipedia's past

Nostalgia is a link to what Wikipedia looked like back in 2001 when we had only 19,000 articles.

The English Wikipedia now has over 7,083,702 articles. ( to refresh number). The five-millionth article, Persoonia terminalis, about a rare shrub, was written by an editor in Australia just after midnight on November 1, 2015.
