> I see no other reason why they should have 300X the employees.

Well, that's a little unfair. When you measure from 1, virtually any number will look like an absurd multiple. Calling it 300x makes it sound ridiculous but for a company with $80MM in revenue, 300 employees doesn't seem to be unreasonable.



Fair enough on the relative change, but what new core ongoing function does Wikipedia have since 2005 to merit the raw numbers?


No idea. I'm just commenting on the way the data is presented. 300 doesn't seem absurd to me. How many they actually need, though, I don't know.
