Here is the data on a linear, rather than logarithmic scale[0]. Y axis is number of articles and X axis is "years since 2001". I copied the data as best I could

Here is the data on a linear, rather than logarithmic scale[0]. Y axis is number of articles and X axis is "years since 2001". I copied the data as best I could from the chart given by the author of this article. Wikipedia has a page itself about its own size which shows a similar linear growth rate[1].
