    History

    [edit]

    Katherine Maher, the executive director of Wikimedia Foundation announced the launch of the Tulu Wikipedia as a full site at WikiConference India 2016.[1] It was in incubation since 2008. As of August 2016, it had 200 registered editors with 10 of them being active, and over 1000 articles.[5] It was the 23rd language from India to have a Wikipedia edition.[6] By 2024, it had doubled in size, and had more than 2 100 articles. The Hindu noted in 2024 that the Tulu Wikipedia does not have any institutional support.[7]
