Kurdish Wikipedia (Kurmanji Kurdish: Wîkîpediya kurdî, Sorani Kurdish: ویکیپیدیای کوردی) refers to two Wikipedia editions which are written in two forms of Kurdish language; Kurmanji and Sorani.

The original one was founded in January 2004. As of February 2025, the Kurmanji Wikipedia has 90,520 articles and Sorani Wikipedia has 75,847 articles.[1] There are also two other Wikipedia editions for Zazaki and Southern Kurdish with the latter still in the test phase.

History

The Kurdish Wikipedia established on 7 January 2004,[2] designed to contain articles in Kurmanji and Sorani at the same time. On 12 August 2009, Kurdish Wikipedia separated into two versions due to technical and linguistic issues. The old version (ku.) remained as Kurmanji Kurdish Wikipedia and a new version (ckb.) created for Sorani Kurdish Wikipedia.
