Wikipedia is a free multilingual open-source wiki -based online encyclopedia edited and maintained by a community of volunteer editors , started on 15 January 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.

The Meta-Wiki language committee manages policies on creating new Wikimedia projects. To be eligible, a language must have a valid ISO code, be "sufficiently unique", and have a "sufficient number of fluent users". Wikipedia projects vary in how they divide dialects and variants. For example, Serbo-Croatian encompasses four Wikipedia editions, Serbo-Croatian and three different standardized varieties Bosnian , Croatian , and Serbian.

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 ].

Each Wikipedia project has a code, which is used as a subdomain of wikipedia. The codes mostly conform to ISO two-letter codes or ISO three-letter codes, with preference given to a two-letter code if available. The table below lists the active language editions of Wikipedia roughly sorted by the number of active users registered users who have made at least one edit in the last thirty days.
