Wikipedia:Two-billionth edit pool
This is a page to guess when the two billionth edit (as measured by the "oldid" field) will be made (i.e. when this link becomes valid). Also, for those who want to joke around, guess what the edit will be about.
This pool opened on December 22, 2018. The date pool will be closed when Wikipedia reaches 1800 million edits (i.e. when this link becomes valid). The total number of edits on Wikipedia is currently (as of November 10, 2024) around 1256.48 million. Do not rely on {{NUMBEROFEDITS}}, as it is significantly lower (namely by slightly over 4.7 million), and could be up to a year apart from the oldid field by the time each of them reach two billion. The topic pool might as well stay open until the last minute (bonus if your guess is the two-billionth edit).
