It's really HOT!

Now in Sinhala Wikipedia the activity level is at a all time high (at least that's how I feel it). There are a few casual contributors but we have a few exceptionally active users now.

I guess it's about time we form that reviewer panel there. I prefer if Sinhala Community learn to use admins rather than giving them personalities. I started a discussion regarding this in කෝපි කඩේ but there was not much of a response on that.

I of cause didn't go for a full scale reviewer panel to start with. My first concern was on deleting articles. We are having some doubts about deleting most of the articles. Today's mechanism of deleting things is one person tags an article to be deleted and an admin go through the article and check whether it should be deleted or not. If the admin feels it should be deleted then the article is deleted. This is very inefficient since we only have two admins in our wiki now. Besides I'm not a big fan of giving decision making power to admins. I prefer if we can keep admins as tools not as personalities.

Well, anyway it's up to the community to decide on that. We will have a real thing soon ;-)

As for the statistics, the article count on 2010 August 27 is 3,846.
