Talk:El Hormiguero

message: This has apparently been confirmed as the two millionth English Wikipedia article by Reuters  and iTWire (Australia) .  The source of these articles is apparently a press release by Wikimedia, which should be on meta and/or wikimediafoundation.org soon.  Is there anyone from the Spanish Wikipedia that could help us improve the article further?  Zzxc 01:47, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Two Millionth Article (confirmed by press release, Reuters)

message: Regardless of whether this is the two millionth article, it has got a lot of attention from both within and outside of Wikipedia, so it should be improved beyond the current start-class (albeit relatively well-referenced) article.  I have already added some more references and information to the article, but some people who know Spanish better than I do will need to help out.  Here is a rough list of things that might need done to the article - any references or additional information would be helpful.  Edit it as needed.  Zzxc 06:20, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Ok, I'll have to concede that it is the 2,000,000th. If only I submitted my article, Varney, Kentucky, a full second later. But I'm hoping their next new episode will focus on Wikipedia and how they feel about being the 2,000,000th article. Inevitably, as episodes of this show get uploaded on Youtube and elsewhere, many more will watch this show. (Provided they get supplied with subtitles, of course.) --Let Us Update Special:Ancientpages. 09:14, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Congratulations all around! It's interesting to think that the 1,999,999th and 2,000,001th articles were on a train station near Tokyo and an obscure video compression technique respectively. Wikipedia really does cover everything. -- The_socialist talk? 09:46, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good thing it was not the obscure train station. The obscure train station which was article number 1.000.000 was quite enough... Thue | talk 09:50, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: We ought to set up a kiosk at the Jordanhill railway station with a television monitor playing a continuous-loop recording containing episodes of El Hormiguero, which would give WikiCult acolytes a place to make a pilgrimage to which covers both the 1,000,000th and 2,000,000th articles. *Dan T.* 16:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Except that this would be against our licensing rules, even if the producers of the show granted permission for such use... to be fully in accordance with Wikipedia principles, it would be better to get the show's producers to do a skit pertaining to Wikipedia, and release it under a free license such as Creative Commons which permits free use including derivative works; then we'd be able to put it in the kiosk and even add English subtitles to it. *Dan T.* 16:23, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: A cruddy article was created and then deleted; the current article was freshly created as article 2,000,000 (ish) and then the earlier deleted revisions were restored. So this article isn't that article :-) - David Gerard 15:37, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Shall we have a sweepstake on the 2,500,000th English Language article? I wager it will be a type of grass native to New Zealand. Savager 10:00, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry Savager, I guess you have already lost your wager. Through speculation the 2,500,000th article of this Wikipedia is actually Joseph Francis "Joe" Connor, who was the late American baseball player, not a type of grass native to New Zealand.

message: Please discuss the issue of whether this banner should be in the article rather than simply edit-warring. Traditionally, we avoid self-references like this, but this is obviously not an ordinary case.--Chaser - T 09:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think a banner would be OK for today. --Camptown 10:11, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: A banner should wait until this is the official 2 millionth article (i.e. it is on the Main page.)  Besides, there was no banner on the rail station or the obscure species of snail (1 millionth and 1.5 millionth article, respectively), so I don't see why there should be one here. --Phirazo 18:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: How about a banner on the talk page, like the Jordanhill railway station talk page?Æetlr Creejl 19:08, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no way to tell what the 2 millionth article is, and based on the info we do have this is probably not it. Prodego talk 22:08, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Actually it is likely (I would say 60-80%, but I am making that up) that this is not the 2 millionth article. Whatever it is it is in a set of 6 possibles, 15 pages away from this article. Prodego talk 22:26, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The data in question (a combination of the log files I took and ST47's IRC feed log) is not accurate to anywhere near 15, given the limitations of the script and the job queue at the time.  The only way to know for sure is to look at the data in the mysql log.  (Presumably, the Foundation will be making a news release in the very near future.)  Zzxc 23:27, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The first Youtube link that was there, the rap about firearms in the United States, was posted on Youtube by Cuatro TV itself.  Thus, including it would probably not be a copyright violation.  Zzxc 22:29, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably the video's supplied to youtube under this agreement  would be fine to link to. ssepp(talk) 23:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

A1 not met: "Lack of context. Very short articles that provide no context for their statements. Example: "He is a funny man who owns a red car and makes people laugh." Limited content is not in itself a reason to delete if there is enough context for the article to qualify as a valid stub."
El Hormiguero was the 2 000 000 article in the English Wikipedia.
It got high coverage by news media around the world.
