Hi everyone,

Yesterday, Wikipedia reached a major milestone, surpassing one million articles for the first time. The one millionth article, Jordanhill railway station, was posted just after 23:00 GMT.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordanhill_railway_station

Amazingly, the article has been edited more than 400 times in less than 24 hours by the Wikipedia community.
