Millions, presumably. The English Wikipedia has nearly 10 million registered users, although a large portion of those won't have 25 edits (and some will be sockpuppets). Once you take the whole Wikimedia movement into account, the number of eligible voters must surely be over a million. A very large portion of those will no longer be involved in the projects, though. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
