Wikipedia is a free multilingual open-source wiki-based online encyclopedia edited and maintained by a community of volunteer editors, started on January 15th 2001 as an English-language encyclopedia. Non-English editions were soon created: the German and Catalan editions were created on circa 16 March,[1] the French edition was created on 23 March,[2] and the Swedish edition was created on 23 May.[3] As of December 2024, Wikipedia articles have been created in 352 editions, with 339 currently active and 13 closed.[4]

Map of the most popular edition of Wikipedia by country
Most popular edition of Wikipedia by country. In grayed-out countries, the "national-language" edition is usually the most popular, but there are exceptions: for example, Afghanistan has Persian Wikipedia as the most popular (there is no Dari Wikipedia).

The Meta-Wiki language committee manages policies on creating new Wikimedia projects. To be eligible, a language must have a valid ISO 639 code, be "sufficiently unique", and have a "sufficient number of fluent users".[5]

Variations in editions

Wikipedia projects vary in how they divide dialects and variants. For example, the English Wikipedia includes most modern varieties of English including American English and British English.[6][7] Similarly, the Spanish Wikipedia includes both Peninsular Spanish and Latin American Spanish,[8] and the Portuguese Wikipedia includes both European Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese.[9] In contrast, some languages have multiple Wikipedias. For example, Serbo-Croatian encompasses four Wikipedia editions, Serbo-Croatian and three different standardized varieties (Bosnian, Croatian, and Serbian).[10]

Additionally, some Wikipedia projects apply different approaches to orthography. For instance, the Chinese Wikipedia automatically transliterates between six standard forms: three using simplified Chinese characters (Mainland China, Malaysia, and Singapore) and three using traditional Chinese characters (Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau [zh]).[11][12] And rather than relying on transliteration, Belarusian has separate Wikipedia projects for the official Narkamaŭka and Taraškievica orthographies.[13]

Wikipedia edition codes

edit

Each Wikipedia project has a code, which is used as a subdomain of wikipedia.org. The codes mostly conform to ISO 639-1 two-letter codes or ISO 639-3 three-letter codes, with preference given to a two-letter code if available.[14] For example, en stands for English in ISO 639-1, so the English Wikipedia is at en.wikipedia.org.

No passado, as tensões motivadas pelas variantes idiomáticas levaram a propostas para a criação de Wikipédias separadas para o português brasileiro e europeu. Tentativas nesse sentido lançadas em 2005, 2007 e 2009 foram rejeitadas pela Wikimedia Foundation, sob pretexto de que não se trata de idiomas suficientemente diferentes para justificar a cisão.
