Since then, more than 10 thousand volunteers registered in the Bashkir "Wikipedia" and contributed to its development. More than 446,000 actions on creating new or amending existing articles were performed. Over the past 30 days the section was supported by 51 active editors. In the coming days it will overcome the boundary of 33,000 entries. Bashkir "Wikipedia" takes the 80th place in the overall ranking on number of entries among 287 language editions.
