The Danish Wikipedia (which is called Dansk Wikipedia in Danish) is the version of Wikipedia written in the Danish language. It is like a giant online encyclopedia where people can find information about almost anything. This special edition of Wikipedia started in February 2002.
What is Wikipedia?
Wikipedia is a huge online encyclopedia that anyone can edit. It's a project that aims to share knowledge freely with everyone around the world. It comes in many different languages, and each language version is called an "edition."
It's a great place to learn about history, science, famous people, and much more. Volunteers from all over the world help write and improve the articles.
The Danish Wikipedia
The Danish Wikipedia is the edition specifically for people who speak Danish. It works just like the main Wikipedia, but all the articles are written in Danish.
This edition was one of the earlier ones to be created, starting in 2002. It has grown a lot since then, with many articles covering a wide range of topics.
Size and Growth
The Danish Wikipedia is a big part of the global Wikipedia family. As of July 2014, it had over 190,000 articles. This makes it one of the larger Wikipedia editions, showing how many Danish speakers contribute to sharing knowledge online.
It is currently the 35th largest Wikipedia edition in the world. This means it has more articles than many other language versions.
