What is Māori Wikipedia?
Imagine a huge online book filled with facts about everything. That's Wikipedia! The Māori Wikipedia is a version of this amazing project, but all its articles are written in the Māori language. It's a free website, so anyone can read it without paying.
What's really cool is that people from all over the world can help write and improve the articles. It's a team effort to share knowledge! You can visit the main page here: Māori Wikipedia.
