Projects by number of content pages[edit

The tables below are arranged chronologically by the original launchdates of the major content projects, within two main groups:"interlingual " projects (different wikifor each language) followed by "multilingual" projects (all languages onthe same wiki). The older Wikimedia projects (suchas Wikipedia) tend to be larger than the newer ones, but note that thesetables are /not/ arranged by number of sub

wikis nor by total article count.

For the interlingual projects, /within/ each table the individuallanguage editions are arranged by milestone level, and then

chronologically by the date the milestones were first reached.
