The english version of Wikipedia contains over three and a half million content pages, with more than 22 million pages on the wiki and in excess of 438 million total edits being performed since its founding. On it, there are approximately 13.7 million registered users; roughly 125,000 of them have performed an action on the site within the last thirty days.

At present, Wikipedia has an Alexa Traffic Rank of eight and is given funding by members of the public who donate to it.
