{{see also|Wikipedia:Modelling Wikipedia's growth#Data set for number of articles}}

Key to the data below:
* ''approx'': this figure is an approximation
* ''lowerbound'' indicates that there were at least this many pages
* ''mpac3.2'': main page article count from the Phase III software following an adjustment to the count on March 29, 2015
* ''mpac3.1'': main page article count from the Phase III software from May 25, 2003, to March 28, 2015: [[m:Article count reform|article namespace, not redirects, containing at least one internal wiki link]]
* ''mpacIII'': main page article count from the Phase III software up to May 22, 2003: article namespace, comma, not redirect
* ''mpacII'': main page article count from the Phase II software
* ''spII'': stats page article count from the Phase II software
* ''all'': total of all pages of any sort
* ''commapp'': pages that include a comma, a crude way of finding "real" articles
* ''conscnt'': "conservative count" taken by removing the count of various types of non-article from the comma page count
* MF: [[user:Malcolm Farmer|Malcolm Farmer]]
* LMS: [[user:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]]
* WA: [[Wikipedia:Announcements]]

Now extended and annotated with (somewhat [[Gnomic aspect|gnomic]]) source information. 
Note that sampling times are only recorded to the day given by the user recording the entry and that there is no clear time-zone information for that day. However, most of the more recent counts (up to 2022) were taken at the start of the day based on [[Coordinated Universal Time|UTC]] taken from [[meta:List of Wikipedias/Table|the List of Wikipedias table in Meta Wiki]]. Since 2023, the counts are taken at around the same time, albeit taken from [[commons:Data:Wikipedia statistics/data.tab|the new List of Wikipedias table in Wikimedia Commons]] as it leaves a permanent revision record in its history page, though not necessarily at midnight UTC.

''Note:'' The current mpac3.2 article count for the English-language Wikipedia is '''{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} articles'''
