What Does Ten Years Mean for Wikipedia
A decade on Wikipedia represents roughly 100 million edits across millions of articles. The English Wikipedia passed one million articles in 2006 and continued expanding through the following ten years, adding content in many languages.
How Article Quality Evolved Over Ten Years
Over ten years, Wikipedia improved reliability through stricter sourcing rules, automated tools, and volunteer review. Articles now follow a quality scale from stub to featured, with more pages reaching higher standards.
Community and Governance in a Decade
Wikipedia's editor community grew, matured, and developed policies to handle disputes, vandalism, and copyright. The Wikimedia Foundation supports the project with infrastructure and research, while local chapters organize events worldwide. For more details, see the Wikimedia ten years overview.
