The Polish wikipedia tripled its number of internal

months,
other pl: indicators are more in line with previous figures.
Looking at it, I see the database size grows even faster (250% in December,
which is the month when the abnomaly seems to have happened, against about
240% for the internal links). The number of words also is growing very fast
(almost 50% in the given month). The number of articles also grew faster
than normal, but not as explosively (double the amount); instead, the
average article size more than doubled.
Links to other languages grew fast in January rather than December, so
it must have another reason.
Does anyone have any idea why pl: links increased so
dramatically?
Huge number of link tables?
Given the above, and a normal, moderate grow in the number of active
Wikipedians, it looks like some kind of bot. Checking, what I find is
that the year pages on pl: have recently been augmented with a nice
table giving the ruler at that time in various countries. Whether it is
the reason for your finds, I doubt though.
