This reporter asked one such editor - administrator [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]], his opinion on the milestone. LostInRiverview said, "We shouldn't be glorifying milestones like this, it just encourages people to make garbage articles about things that don't deserve them." By contrast, bureaucrat [[User:Random Ranaun|Random Ranaun]] said, "I really think advertising this amazing accomplishment will make a lot of people want to contribute to the wiki in the future; I don't think bad articles will be a problem." When asked to elaborate, he said, "Meh, I'm too tried to really evaluate it now." Another user, [[User:Duskey|Duskey]], was also consulted but declined to comment on the milestone.
