I exaggerated somewhat. But he has spoken about ongoing exponential growth before, so it annoyed me a bit to see him in denial again. > My calculations come out as about 1/10 the size by articles and 1/3 > the size by words (so their articles must be longer on average). About 30% of the volume of WP at the time consisted of Rambot articles, which aren't too interesting as a measurement of growth (though they may have been a significant reason for our success). There are two kinds of CZ articles: copied from WP (mostly the best articles; generally large), and original ones. The percentage original articles has been rising steadily. Judging from clicking "random page" a few times, they are not too different in length from the average WP article, so the average length of the CZ article is falling.
