The next pages created were WikiPedia, although it served more as Help:Introduction rather than an article about Wikipedia, PhilosophyAndLogic, although it was created to serve a purpose similar to Wikipedia:WikiProject Philosophy/Philosophers, and pages such as UnitedStates, PopularMusic, Sports, MathematicsAndStatistics, CountriesOfTheWorld, and AaA, which were just lists of links.
