This is a list of the different language editions of Wikipedia; as of 28 December 2024 there are 295 Wikipedias of which 284 are active.
Wikipedia edition codes
Each Wikipedia has a code, which is used as a subdomain below wikipedia.org. Interlanguage links are sorted by that code. The codes represent the language codes defined by ISO 639-1 and ISO 639-3, and the decision of which language code to use is usually determined by the IETF language tag policy. Wikipedias also vary by how thinly they slice dialects and variants; for example, the English Wikipedia includes most modern varieties of English (American English, Indian English, South African English, etc.), but does not include other related languages such as Scots, or Anglo-Saxon, all of which have separate Wikipedias. The Spanish Wikipedia includes both Peninsular Castilian and Latin American Spanish; Malay Wikipedia includes a large number of Malay languages; and so on.
Differences between the ISO mappings and Wikipedia codes include:
WP edition name | WP code | Code meaning in ISO 639 |
---|---|---|
Albanian | sq | 'sq' is the ISO code for the Albanian macrolanguage that includes four individual languages, although Tosk Albanian is mainly used. 'Als' is the individual code for Tosk Albanian, but this code is used for Alemannic Wikipedia. |
Alemannic | als | 'als' is the ISO code for Tosk Albanian.[2] ISO doesn't map exactly here; 'gsw' is the ISO 639-2 and -3 code for Swiss German, Alemannic German, and Alsatian. 'gct' is the ISO 639-3 code for Colonia Tovar dialect, 'swg' is for Swabian German, and 'wae' is for Walser German |
Aromanian | roa-rup | Not an ISO code. 'roa' is Romance (Other); ISO uses 'rup'. |
Banyumasan | map-bms | Not an ISO code. 'map' is Austronesian (Other). |
Dutch Low Saxon | nds-nl | Not an ISO code. nds is 'Low Saxon', restricted to Germany in Ethnologue. The Low Saxon dialects in the Netherlands have their own ISO codes. |
Bihari | bh | ISO collective code 'bih' is a macrolanguage which includes Bhojpuri (bho), Maithili (mai), Magahi (mag) and nine others[3] Bihari Wikipedia excludes Maithili (mai) and Fiji Hindi (hif) which exist as independent Wikipedias. |
Cantonese | zh-yue | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'yue'. |
Classical Chinese | zh-classical | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'lzh'. |
Malay | ms | Macro language that includes more than 30 individual languages and dialects. However, the wiki excludes Indonesian because Indonesian Wikipedia (id) exists independently. |
Min Nan | zh-min-nan | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'nan'. |
Norwegian Bokmål | no | ISO uses no for Norwegian in general. Bokmal specifically is 'nb' or 'nob'. (Norwegian Nynorsk is at 'nn' in both ISO and Wikipedia.) |
Ripuarian | ksh | ISO ksh is for the Kölsch language, the most prominent dialect of the Ripuarian language group. The other variants (e.g. the Aachen dialect) do not have ISO codes. |
Samogitian | bat-smg | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'sgs'. 'bat' is Baltic (Other). |
Simple English | simple | Not an ISO code. |
Tarantino | roa-tara | Not an ISO code. 'roa' is Romance (Other). |
Võro | fiu-vro | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'vro'. |
Zamboanga Chavacano | cbk-zam | Not an ISO code; ISO uses 'cbk' as Chavacano. |
Additionally, Wikipedias vary in wikt:orthography at times. Chinese Wikipedia automatically translates from modern Mandarin Chinese into four standard forms: Mainland China and Singapore in simplified Chinese characters, and Taiwan and Hong Kong / Macau in traditional Chinese characters. Belarussian, however, has a separate Wikipedia for the 'normative' orthography (be) and Taraškievica (be-tarask).
List
An approximation to the number of active users is given in powers of ten (see common logarithm): so "5" means at least 10,000, "4" means at least 1000, "3" means at least 100, and so on.
Detailed list
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).
- "Active Users" are registered users who have made at least one edit in the last thirty days.
- "Images" is the number of locally uploaded files. Note that some large Wikipedias don't use local images and rely on Commons completely, so the value 0 is not a glitch.
- The "Depth" column (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.
