This Six-million pool is for predicting the date at which the number of articles (as defined by the official article count presented on the
Special:Statistics) in the
EnglishWikipedia reaches 6,000,000 (six million). The person who comes closest to the actual date is the winner (of eternal fame). The current number of articles in the English Wikipedia is 6,819,972.
This pool closed for entries when the English Wikipedia article count reached 4,800,000 (on March 29, 2015). Perhaps try the
WP:Nine-million pool or a higher pool.
Current level: 113.67% of 6M goal (live).
This Six-million pool opened on 26 September 2009, shortly after the three-millionth article was created.
December 21, 2012. The world will not end on this date, and this date is predicted because Wikipedia is seeing more and more articles these days, and this wave will increase, thus the 6000000th article being on 12-21-2012.

April 1. We'll all laugh about it being on
April Fool's Day and then we'll feel sad because we have to wait another 1,000,000 before we can do this again. -
