Congratulations to the Chinese Wikipedia, which just hit 150,000 articles, despite being blocked in China.

The latest stats showed that Hong Kong and Taiwan contributors make up over 50% of the contributors. Dedicated PRC users who can get to zh.wikipedia.org by proxy and overseas Chinese make up the rest. A quick spot check also shows lots of the activity in zh: relates to pop culture and current events, such as Harry Potter (哈利波特－死神的聖物), Rain Man (雨人), Heart of Greed (溏心风暴), GiGi Lai (黎姿). This does not seem so different than English Wikipedia, and may well be what gets folks introduced to Wikipedia first.
