This page documents the existence of the Wikimedia movement in Indonesia: the world's largest island country, the 14th-largest country by land area, and world's fourth-most populous country.

Major entities within the Wikimedia movement in Indonesia are the projects, affiliate, and like-minded partner organizations.

Projects[edit]

Indonesia has more than 700 local languages. Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian language) is the national language.

As of November 2023, there are 16 languages of Indonesia that has at least one Wikimedia project; in total, there are 29 projects in the languages of Indonesia, 1 closed project, and 4 projects in languages spoken in Indonesia and neighboring countries (Malay, Tetun). Several other languages are still in the Wikimedia Incubator.

List of administrators of Indonesian projects can be found here.

Indonesian (id)[edit]

Indonesian is spoken in neighboring countries such as Malaysia, Brunei, Timor Leste, Singapore, Papua New Guinea, etc. as well.

Javanese (jv)[edit]

Javanese is spoken in Indonesia and Suriname.

Jawa Banyumasan (map-bms)[edit]

Banyumasan is regarded as a dialect of Javanese, thus it doesn't have its own language code.

Sundanese (su)[edit]

Buginese (bug)[edit]

Banjar (bjn)[edit]

Acehnese (ace)[edit]

Minangkabau (min)[edit]

Gorontalo (gor)[edit]

Balinese (ban)[edit]

Madurese (mad)[edit]

Nias (nia)[edit]

Mandailing (btm)[edit]

Batak Toba (bbc)[edit]

Malay (ms)[edit]

At that time, the language code (ms) was regarded as separate language, but now it is regarded as a macrolanguage (LoC) or nuclear family (Glottolog). Currently the code for Malay (individual) language is msa/zlm. The code for Malaysian Malay is zsm. (See the many language codes in the infobox of w:Malay language)

Tetun (tet)[edit]
