Congratulations to Russian Wikipedia from Marat Fidarov, Jennifer Jennings, myself and our whole company, on reaching half a million articles. This is an important milestone for all Russian speakers of the world. Also, Marat Fidarov is pointing out, very encouraging is the fact that there is a lot of support behind the development of Wikipedia in other languages of the peoples of the Russian Federatrion.

I never used the discussion feature so I want to test it here and also, as a Russian Wikipedian, I have to say that the 500,000-article milestone was long anticipated and is truly a major event for so many people. --Ssr (talk) 19:29, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
