User:JJBers/The Size Test

Wikipedia is large site containing over 11 GB. of information, but how does every article affect a 16 GB. USB Drive? If the average size of a article is 3.6 kb, the site would be over 18 GB. large, but that isn't the size of Wikipedia, as mentioned above.

Single item tests

1. The smallest article made by me, Hanover, Connecticut. The article is about 1.6 KB. long on Wikipedia, but due to over linking, by the time it makes it to Word, it's over 55 KB.
2. Now for the largest article by made me, the William C. O'Neill Bike Path. The article is 8.7 KB. on Wikipedia, but due to Word's odd formatting, it causes it to jump up to 92 KB.
3. List of rail trails in the United States is the largest article created by me. The page ranks up at around 28 KB, starkly different from my other pages. Unlike the last two, due to it's simple formating, it only ends up taking 51 KB. after conversion to Word.
4. Now for some larger articles, the US presidential timeline 2016, another list article, but this time, it's 88 KB. on Wikipedia, but put on the drive, it ends now at 157 KB.
5. Let's now look at Connecticut, the state I live in. The page is nearly 170 KB. long, and after transferring, it became 1.4 MB. long!
6. Now for the largest non-list article, India–European Union relations, which is currently 483 KB. on the site, when converted ends up also 1.4 MB. long.
7. And finally, the largest article on the content pages in Wikipedia, List of all National Historic Landmarks, which is currently 1 MB. long on Wikipedia, when transferred to the USB Drive, it ends up 1.7 MB. long.
