[edit] Congratulations

Congratulations with Jordanhill railway station, article number 1M! Eugene van der Pijll 23:17, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Jordanhill railway station is the the millionth article! Congrats! Jon Harald Søby 23:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

You'll be in the press release, 'grats! Obli (Talk)? 23:19, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you all, I'll reply on your talk pages as soon as I can :) What press release? Nach0king 23:21, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
It's been drafted here. Melchoir 23:27, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Cheers! Nach0king 23:51, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

You are so lucky! I was standing by trying to get the timing just right... Congratulations though! Good job on the 1,000,000th article!!! --TylerNi7 23:26, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey if it is you, congrats and well timed through that last minute article dash! Cheers Banez 23:29, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations (1000,000th article), but why choose such boring subject ? ;-) Greudin 23:26, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
I often add articles about railway stations, as you can see from the interests on my user page. I'm just a boring guy, I guess, plus my full rewrite of Lagos and my additions to Utopianism aren't quite ready yet ;) Nach0king 23:34, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
It is nice that this article was one in a series of articles you were posting over a period of time (as opposed to a mass posting of articles all at once in an attempt to hit the 1,000,000th article). In other words, this is a legitimate work-a-day article, just the type of article that deserves to be highlighted as representative of Wikipedia. Congrats, NoSeptember talk 23:51, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Congratulations on the millionth article--there certainly was a rush on there! Hynca-Hooley 23:32, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

And Congratulations from the Armpit of the United States Crzrussian 17:26, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
I don't believe that the subject is boring, the boring is the people that find it boring. -everything is interesting if you get to really know and understand it-. A333A 00:53, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congrats on the one million mark!! I kept reloading the article number page to see exactly when it hit one million. Looks like you are a stellar wikipedia member, I am glad it happened to you! (Cardsplayer4life 23:43, 1 March 2006 (UTC))


Congratulations :). You say on your userpage that you don't plan to improve the article - please reconsider, that article is going to get literally millions of hits in the near future! Thue | talk 23:45, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations. I really envy you now. --Andy123 00:35, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations! You are the man! Gflores Talk 01:46, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations, It's great to see how much this community has grown and has become one of the internets most visited sites, also it's cool that it was a fellow Suikoden fan(or I suppose so from your cleanup of the article). Good luck and may your typing fingers always stay swift! User:Vessol | Talk 02:28, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind comment. I wish to contribute much more towards India-related articles, these days. Thank you. --Andy123 11:02, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Press info?

Hi Nach0king, congrats!! Pending confirmation that this was the millionth article, do you mind having your name and username associated with the millionth article press release we are sending out? Cheers, +sj + 23:37, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

I have replied on your talk page. Nach0king 23:56, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Congrats! __earth (Talk) 04:44, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] If I were you...

...my millionth article would be one of those:

  1. E.O. Leblanc, famous Dominican politician in the 1960s;
  2. Lapitch the Little Shoemaker, a Croatian children's film directed by Milan Blažeković;
  3. Phyllis Shand Allfrey, or
  4. The Orchid House (her only novel).

Oh, well. Kudos on having that honour all night long! (NB: I'm from Dominica.) --Slgrandson 00:30, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Congrats

That's one small step for wikipedia, one giant leap for mankind. --Mmeinhart 01:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Damn you, Nacho! Vengeance will be mine when 2 million rolls around! --maru (talk) contribs 01:16, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

This is great, congratulations to you and us. Let's all share the moment. ❝Sverdrup❞ 01:29, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Nice work; you're one of those many people who's written articles that have helped out hundreds and probably many thousands of high school students across America. Good to see such good people contributing to such a good cause! Peter Gawtry 01:41, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

And I stayed up and wrote 10 articles to fire at Wiki at the last second- all for nothing. Blif. I guess I'll just have to write a million more good articles, and flood wiki with 'em all, so I can have 2 million! Hah! Congrats from México : ) P.S. You gonna take a picture of the damn railway station for us? - Eric 01:45, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

While we are at it, I think I'll squeeze my name into this high traffic page too; er.... I mean congrats :-). Prodego talk 01:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations on the millionth article! xaosflux Talk/CVU 01:55, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Honestly, I think creating the 1 000 000th article is all luck. You just created it at precisely the correct time.--68.125.78.12 02:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia - like the World Series of Poker - is a place where "anyone can win". Deckiller 02:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations and thank you! More than even your article (which was great), I loved your magnanimous comments on your user page. Danny 02:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations from Berlin and on behalf of Esperanto-community! You are doing great work, guys!!! --Alaudo 02:37, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

One for the Brits! Way to go Nach0king. All the best, Craigy (talk) 02:46, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Might as well add my name to the growing list of congrats.... I'll be the first to congratulate you from the state of Ohio, USA (or so I think). "Ditto" all the compliments above. Who'd a thunk that the millionth article would be created by someone who has just over a thousand edits? Way to take one for the little guy. But while you're one of the little guys, your account stretches way back to November 2003. Thanks for your contributions, and keep it up! — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 03:14, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Nope, I'm from Ohio, and I beat you to it :-) Mmeinhart 03:29, 2 March 2006 (UTC)--

It was legitimate praise, by which I meant the millionth article is something we would definitely be keeping and looks good from the first (Let me say, too, that there is a faint personal connection here as my mother-in-law is from Glasgow originally). Daniel Case 17:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hearty congratulations

Hi Nach0king. I think I may safely speak for all of us when I say that all at the Scottish Wikipedians' notice board are delighted with your success. I have asked everybody to visit the article and click-through all the Scotland-related links and polish up as many articles as we can: I can envisage a lot more traffic for a while from the publicity, which can only be good. If no-one has already done so I am going to list it as a good article, cos it fits the criteria with all the attention it has been getting. I will also put the article up as our highlighted article at Portal:Scotland.

I couldn't ask a favour could I? Could you give the portal and the notice board prominent positions on your User page, and maybe your Talk page too? I know that you already link to the notice board, but could you add a prominent link to the portal, by using this code:

  • {{portalpar|Scotland}}

All the best.--Mais oui! 11:08, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

After a wee think, is it OK if I wait a few days before we change the highlighted article at the portal? Your article will be getting gazzillions of hits anyway, and I would really love our latest Featured article: Scotland in the High Middle Ages, to get some spin-off attention. I'll mention it in the "Wikipedia" box instead, for the time being.--Mais oui! 11:13, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
Whatever you think's best for the portal. I added a portal link to my user page, as per your request (I kept meaning to earlier but I kept forgetting.) Nach0king 09:51, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Well done Hellinterface 11:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] On the Top, My congratulatory poem.

May you bask in the rarefied air,
Standing on the top of a pile of a million articles created.
Then for a brief moment look down on all
And beckon them to join you... shouting out:
Make this Mountain of Knowledge bigger!!

Hi, well done! My name's Nicholas Mayes, I'm a student doing the Strathclyde postgrad journalism course at the Jordanhill campus. (Like you I'm a Glasgow Politics grad too.) I was wondering if you'd be up for speaking to the paper we put together every week, 'The Contender', for a short interview about this. If so, much obliged. Perhaps you could email me on on njmayes@gmail.com. Thanks! Hope I put this in the right place by the way... ;-)
