I'm pretty surprised by a number of things here. First and foremost, how popular Polish and Catalan are. Secondly, I thought that there would be vastly more English articles than any other language, and this isn't the case.

- redthrowaway 15y agoUnfortunately, on some of the smaller wikipedias (by users), automatic article creation through algorithmic translation of en.wp is fairly common. The result is a large volume of poor quality articles. Esperanto was one of the wikis that fell victim to this at first.
- beaumartinez 15y agoThere are around 3,500,000 English articles (versus 1,200,000 German ones, the next largest language). This isn't apparent in the graph as by default it has a logarithmic scale; you can set it to linear, try it and see.
