[Foundation-l] Commons reaches 5 million files
Around 11:46 UTC we reached 5 million files on Commons! Not quite sure which file is the 5th million, but this is one of the candidates: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Kj%C3%B8benhavnsposten_28_nov_1838_side_1.jpg Thanks everyone for making Commons such as a fantastic project, and creating the world's largest repository of free images! -- Hay ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l

In case you want to test it, see the version history or get the following file: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/a/af/20090902125937!Kj%C3%B8benhavnsposten_28_nov_1838_side_1.jpg From a PR perspective, taking this image as the 5millionth one is a desaster, the only positive aspect is that it is honest to take that one instead of a shiny picture.

How do we know this picture is the 5th million? Just for curiosity, does anyone know what is the scanned paper about?

Perhaps not so much, as it happened to be a first page of the newspaper. And I guess it is still better than the 2millionth file ;) ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l

I agree, the scroll-over annotation and translation looks brilliant to my taste.
