This Seven-million pool is for predicting the date at which the number of articles (as defined by the official article count presented on the Special:Statistics) in the English Wikipedia reaches 7,000,000 (seven million). The person who comes closest to the actual date is the winner (of eternal fame). The current number of articles in the English Wikipedia is 6,795,042.

This pool has closed for entries, when the English Wikipedia article count reached 5,600,000 (March 29, 2018). Perhaps try the Eight-million pool or a higher pool. Current level: 97.07% of 7M goal (live). This Seven-million pool opened on 12 December 2010‎, the day English Wikipedia reached 3.5 million articles.
