This page contains a list of all 313 languages for which official Wikipedias have been created under the auspices of the Wikimedia Foundation. This list includes 10 Wikipedias that were closed and moved to the Wikimedia Incubator for further development, so there is a current total of 303 active Wikipedias. Content in other languages is being developed at the Wikimedia Incubator; languages which meet certain criteria can get their own wikis.

The table entries are ordered by current article count. Each entry gives the language name in English (linked to the English Wikipedia article for the language); its "local name" (i.e. in the language itself, linked to the article in that language's wiki); the language code used in the wiki's URL address and in interwiki links to it (linked to the local Main Page); and statistics on articles, edits, administrators, users, active users, and images (most linked to an appropriate local special page).

To start a Wikipedia in a new language, please see our language proposal policy and the Incubator manual. Note: Just adding a link here does not create a new Wikipedia, nor does it serve to request that one be created.

If a wiki becomes active and is not listed here, please post a notice on this article's talk page, including a link to all the relevant Wikipedia pages, and help promote the effort by announcing it on the Wikipedia-L mailing list, and at Wikimedia News.

The tables here are regularly completely overwritten by a bot (using automatically gathered statistics from each wiki), so any edits made to individual entries won't last long, and are therefore usually unnecessary. If something is wrong with an entry other than simply having slightly outdated statistics, post about it on the talk page.

Lists of Wikipedias by various criteria:

Notes

The " Total " column refers to the number of pages in all namespaces, including both articles (the official article count of each wiki) and non-articles (user pages, images, talk pages, "project" pages, categories, and templates).

" column refers to the number of pages in namespaces, including both (the official article count of each wiki) and (user pages, images, talk pages, "project" pages, categories, and templates). " Active Users " are registered users who have made at least one edit in the last thirty days.

" are registered users who have made at least one edit in the last thirty days. " Files " is the number of locally uploaded files. Note that some large Wikipedias don't use local images or other media files and rely on Commons completely, so the value "0" is not a glitch (see also List of Wikipedias having zero local media files)

" is the number of locally uploaded files. Note that some large Wikipedias don't use local images or other media files and rely on Commons completely, so the value "0" is not a glitch (see also List of Wikipedias having zero local media files) The "Depth" column (defined as [Edits/Articles] × [Non-Articles/Articles] × [1 − Stub-ratio] ) is a rough indicator of a Wikipedia’s quality, showing how frequently its articles are updated. It does not refer to academic quality.

All Wikipedias ordered by number of articles

The languages listed here are Wikipedias that have been created as separate subdomains of wikipedia.org, ordered by number of articles. The table includes closed Wikipedias whose domains still exist.

Moved and deleted

The Toki Pona language edition of the Wikipedia is no longer hosted by Wikimedia and is now hosted by Wikia as Wikipesija. The Klingon language edition of the Wikipedia is no longer hosted by Wikimedia and is now hosted by Wikia as Klingon Wiki. There is more on the history of the Klingon Wikipedia. It is now widely agreed upon that the creation of the Siberian language Wikipedia 2006 was based on a hoax. It was deleted in 2007 after contents had been moved to the sibvolgota. Sep11wiki existed as a distinct Wikipedia (with a .wikipedia.org URL) from 2001 to 2008, despite its totally different scope and purpose from all other Wikipedias. It was made read-only in 2006 and closed two years later. The Moldovan Cyrillic language edition of the Wikipedia is no longer hosted by Wikimedia and is now hosted by Wikia as Википедия.
