The Thai Wikipedia (Thai: วิกิพีเดียภาษาไทย) is the Thai language edition of Wikipedia. It was started on 25 December 2003. As of June 2024, it has 164,610 articles and 476,754 registered users.[1] As of March 2022, Wikipedia (all languages combined) was ranked 14th in Alexa's Top Sites Thailand.[2]
As of January 2021, the Thai Wikipedia is the most visited Wikipedia in both Thailand and Laos.[3] In Laos the position of the most popular language version of Wikipedia alternates between English and Thai.
On 31 January 2006, the Thai Wikipedia was first recognized along with English Wikipedia in the Thai press. In 2007, a thesis, Thai Wikipedia and Communicating Knowledge to the Public, was published by a graduate student from the Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts, Chulalongkorn University.
The Thai Wikipedia was mentioned during a public forum during the 2005-2006 Thai political crisis when a speaker suggested that Thai people should read Wikipedia's article on Thaksin Shinawatra, the former prime minister.[4]
The Thai Wikipedia is the second online encyclopedia in the Thai language after the Thai Junior Encyclopedia Project, which was developed under the patronage of King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
