This may be currently discussed at the #wikilist channel on the Freenode IRC network...
There are a growing number of Wikipedia projects, some very active and others quite stagnant. I propose that we invigorate them by ensuring that they each contain a minimum amount of basic, useful information. This way, people will be encouraged to use these projects and help in their growth.
I therefore suggest that we make a list of about 1,000 basic articles that we advise having on every existing Wikipedia. These articles should be very basic, and incorporate the most essential information. In some cases, it will be only a table, while in other cases, it will be a stub. This will, however, provide some impetus for the smaller projects to grow.
In addition to simply listing the articles, this project hopes to eventually create easily translatable versions of these articles, possibly containing core information at . Until then, links to the largest Wikipedia, the English language version, are provided as a translatable resource.
Because this list has grown so large, it is currently in the process of being split into two levels of priority. Top-priority entries, which are especially necessary for any Wikipedia to have, are marked in bold; like the list itself, these selections should not be viewed as dictating how important certain topics are, but only as a utility for smaller Wikipedias to start from. (This feature, and the page in general, is currently being discussed on the Talk page. If you support this effort, please contribute to the list and participate in the discussion.).
How to use this list
[ܫܚܠܦ]There are several different ways to use this list. The first is to translate it into the language of your Wikipedia and see whether you have articles on all of these topics. The topics will eventually all be linked to articles in the Simple English Wikipedia. If you are missing an article, or if you are starting out with a new language, you may want to translate these basic articles. You can also check the language links in the Simple English articles for more comprehensive coverage of the topics in many other languages.
