A controversy is continuing, as some secret wiki orgs are protesting against banning users from Wikipedia. There are hundreds of new users coming in every few months. However, there has been an outbreak of many new users of over thousands a month. Over this thousands of edit are happening a day on Wikipedia. Pretty soon, there will be billions of articles at a frightening rate. If this goes on Wikipedia will have a billion users, portals, and most importantly articles. According to Code Napoleon, creator of Portal:Culture of Indians, this controversy is a big problem in the people helping editing his articles. He's afraid of somebody blanking or vandalising his articles and his portal. Over the next few years this will become a problem none of the administrators will be able to be handle.
