isiXhosa edition of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
The Xhosa Wikipedia is the Xhosa language edition of Wikipedia. It has 789 articles, which as of 6 May 2024 makes it the Script error: The function "rank" does not exist.th largest Wikipedia.[1]
The Xhosa edition of Wikipedia was started in June 2003.[2] Its low number of articles has led to proposals to close it in 2008[3] and 2013[4] (both rejected).
As Xhosa is mutually intelligible with Zulu, both of which are Nguni languages, it is possible for articles in the Zulu edition to be easily translated into Xhosa for the Xhosa Wikipedia. Similar trans-wiki efforts have been made for Scandinavian-language editions, such as the Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish through Wikimedia's Skanwiki collaboration tool.
