Target: 14,513/15,000

We passed the 14,500 mark in the article count. So there is less than 500 articles to reach the internal target.

=====================
The article count as of 2018-03-01 10:00 AM: 14,513

Target: 14,494/15,000

We are slowly moving towards our internal target of 15,000 articles. There is also a lot of new accounts been created, though a very few of these are making any edits.

Target: 15,000

Today I noted that we are very close to the article count 15,000. That number does not have any meaning in Wikipedia in the sense of lists. The next list for us is the 100,000+ articles. That would be a long time ahead in the future. But still 15,000 is something that we couldn't even think of when we started on this project.  Let's hope we can meet this internal target very soon.

Sinhala Wikisource

Some time back (most likely බිඟුවා) has created a project for the Sinhala Wikisource. However the things have not progressed from the starting point. As many people pointed out most of the books available in the Sinhala Wikibooks are not actually things that should be there. Most of them belong to the Wikisource.

I started moving things to Sinhala Wikisource. There are a few problems left in the process.

1. We do not have a dedicated site for Sinhala Wikisource. We simply have to share the project they call "multilingual Wikisource" or  OldWikisource with others. This creates a lot of problems in practice than you can think of.
2.  A lot of contributors are not aware of the difference between Wikisource and Wikibooks. (To tell you the truth even I did not know correctly.)
3.  There are some license issues with the books that are available in the Sinhala Wikibooks. You can join the discussion here.

We need your support!
