Hindi Wikipedia has reached 3,000 articles
It is a good news. It is a fine tribute to Jimmy's concerns expressed at Bangalore on 29th September: Indian Language Wikipedia. I hope that Wikipedia in Hindi, a language spoken by about 480 million people and perhaps understood by 800 million people shall become still better and larger wikipedia. -- Bhadani 01:10, 27 October 2006 (UTC) reply
