There are some 250+ languages with a Wikipedia and some 50 still need their MediaWiki localisation. The differences between the projects are sometimes quite stark. The success stories show that a Wikipedia can become significantly important for major and minor languages. Within the projects there is a long tail where people do care but do not make their projects a success. GerardM (talk) 14:24, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
