Hold!
On closer inspection, the stats available in the Dashboard (more up-to-date?) show the number of non-English-language works to be 1501.
That would mean that the title goes to:
Ὁμήρου Ὀδύσσεια (Ραψῳδία 3) (Odyssey, book 3)

Anyway, lots of :birthday: and :clap: to both.

hurrah for the onward march toward 12,000 finished projects!

I just noticed something odd and perplexing about the catalog when browsing by language category.

under English, it says "Completed: 23367 books | In progress: 450 books"

if the total completed projects is only 11.5 thousand.... where is this 23 thousand coming from? anyone have any idea?

There's a glitch with the counts and displays of things in collections that makes the non English counts incorrect - it's on the wish list. If there is 1 say German bit in a 20 piece multilingual project , the 20 are displayed and counted

Looks like the April Challenge stimulated our monthly output. In April there was a total of 94 projects released, if the statistics in the home page are to be believed. :clap:

Hey! When did we get the "...who have completed something" number back? :shock: Very nice!!

So apparently that first number is people in the Reader database, either with or without assigned sections. The second is people that have a PL OK, I assume. At least, that's how I read it. It used to be that type of thing before the redesign, but we never got that second number since then. Thank you, Easter Bunny (since it seems to have occurred sometime in April)!
