Content Analysis by User:Lankiveil

The Somali Wikipedia has had a good start to date, there are decent articles on important Somali people like so:Maxamed Siyaad Barre, and oddly enough, a rather comprehensive looking article on so:Finland. The quality is not consistent though, with what appear to be spam-blighted pages: so:Puntland, and so:Cabdullaahi Yuusuf Axmed. There are also many pages like so:List of international rugby union teams which are basic copy/paste jobs from the English Wikipedia.

Overall, a good start, but more support required to keep spam and inappropriate content out.
