There is also @el_wikinews bringing all the latest published articles. I've tried to make @el_wikipedia to also publish the FA of the week (not so many FAs in el.wikipedia) and 2-3 pieces from "in this day" but I technically failed. I believe those would be much more interesting instead of the article counter, so if anyone has a solution on how to do it please help.
