Lithuanian Wikipedia just about at 100,000 articles

Next over the 100,000 article mark will be Lithuanian:


Over on their Wikipedia here you can see a summary of the article count for the Wikipedia from inception to now. Lithuanian months aren't easily recognizable like many other languages are (even Estonian uses detsember for December for example) so I'll add the English name in parenthesis. Lithuanian months are a bit similar to the old Anglo-Saxon names for the months, with names like Hærfest-mónaþ (harvest month) for September and various other names that reflect the seasonal character at the time instead of one composed mostly just of numbers (Sept = 7, Oct = 8, Nov = 9, Dec = 10, etc.).
