WikiFur officially reached 5,000 articles this week. I would like to thank all of our contributors, our supporters (who aid our efforts to promote WikiFur), and especially our administrators, who have worked tirelessly to clean up after vandals, contribute new articles, help select our featured articles and Comics of the Week, and generally ensure things run smoothly for the 2,000 people who visit every day.

Of course, numbers don't tell the whole story - people don't want to search through a thousand articles to find what they're interested in. Just as important are the pages which collect and organize WikiFur's information, and which link to further articles and resources. I'm excited to see lists of furry media links, furry LiveJournal communities and furry convention resources springing up, as well as further development on such diverse topics as novels, media coverage and multiplayer worlds. WikiFur contributors are also experimenting with new technology, such as our updatable timeline of conventions. We've even made it into print.

As far as we've come, there's still plenty to write about, and a lot more that could be said on existing topics. If you have some time to spare, please consider helping out! Through your contributions, WikiFur can remain a useful resource for years to come.
