The Hindi Wikipedia (Hindi: हिन्दी विकिपीडिया) is the Modern Standard Hindi edition of Wikipedia. It was launched in July 2003. As of April 2024, it has 161,462 articles, and ranks 10th in terms of depth among Wikipedias.[1]
In December 2023, there were 91 million page views.[2] It is the first Wikipedia to be written in a variety of Hindustani, followed by the Urdu Wikipedia, launched in January 2004. On 30 August 2011, the Hindi Wikipedia became the first South Asian-language Wikipedia to surpass 100,000 articles.
Hindi, using the Devanagari script, requires complex transliteration aids to be typed on devices. Thus, a Phonetic Roman Alphabet converter is also available on the Hindi Wikipedia, so the Roman keyboard can be used to contribute in Hindi, without having to use any special Hindi-typing software.
Hindi Wikipedia is the second most popular Wikipedia in India after the English version. However, more than 85% of Wikipedia pageviews from India are to the English Wikipedia. Between January 2016 and January 2021 the share of Hindi Wikipedia increased from 2% to 8%.[3] On average, the Hindi Wikipedia receives 50 to 70 million monthly pageviews as of December 2022, mostly from India.[4]
Hindi fell from 15.2 thousand active users in 2020 to 12.2 thousand in 2021.[5][6] In 2022 the decrease in the number of users with at least one edit in this year continued, although the pace of the decrease was much lower. In the last four months of 2022 the number of active users in Hindi began to grow again[7] and in 2023 the number of active users began to record noticeable growth, nearing the 2020 levels.[8]
