I'm still alive!!!

ok, now there is something happening. :-)

It's really nice to see people adding articles to the Sinhala wiki after a long time. 327 articles (as per the count on 19-Nov-2007); mmm... not bad at all. There is a chance for us to make it to the 500 article target I set for 2007 ;-)

Well, any way now there are enough user and admins at Sinhala wiki. So I'm planning to leave the project so that old man in me won't bother the new guys in there way to the new era. :-)

I'll still be around for some time before saying goodbye for ever.

We have a new Main Page!

After a long time we changed the main page contents. It is nothing much but at least it’s not just a plain page with lot of links (which are also not working). Basically it is the skeleton from the English WP. (OK, OK some times it does not hurt to steal ;-))

Hmmm… lot of content to be filled up!

We don’t still have a page that we can call complete. Therefore we’ve used the one that is closest.

BTW something embarrassing also happened there. Kylu asked for sysop. Can you guess how many votes were there? Can’t guess ah? OK, then I’ll help you. There were no votes against her. That is ok, because we owe her a lot. But for her there were only 4 votes. That is the count of active users in Sinhala Wikipedia today. :-)

So talking about statistics, we have 198 articles (16th August 2007).

I'm back again

Ok, it’s a long time since I did something at the wikipedia. There were some tips from user Thogo about handling spambots. Implemented it! Let’s see if we are going to be free from them.

Most of the previously active users seem to be away from the Sinhala wiki now. :-( Too bad, we were staring to do something there. But let’s see if we can get some brave new souls to fill the void left by those heroes. :-)

Article count is 173 (as on 2007-04-22).
