1500 and 500

From Zelda Wiki.org

Two very nice numbers, those things are. Zelda Wiki.org now boasts 1500 articles and 500 users. It's hard to imagine that when this project started, we laughed about ever reaching 1000! You guys sure showed us.

ZW.org was started in early 2005 - around April or so, perhaps even sooner (the exact date escapes me), so while we near the wonderful two year anniversary of wikiness, good things begin to happen. This is one of them. It really was a wild dream for the wiki ever to reach 1000 articles. Lars joked about it, and I, personally, acknowledged it when he said, "I can't wait to see it when it hits 1000!" When it did that, it was pretty exciting. Then the wiki slowed down for a while, but since being picked up as ZW.org, 500 more no longer seems like a dream. In fact, it's happened.

And while, when we had 1000 articles, there were 250 users, now there are 1500 articles and 500 users. People are registering at a 200% higher rate than before! I don't know if I'm the only one astounded by this.

Anyways, just a big hearty thanks to every contributing person and every contributing site. Here's to 2000 articles and 1000 users! :)
