Wikipedia is a project dedicated to the building of free encyclopedias in all languages of the world. The project started with the English-language Wikipedia on January 15, 2001. It was soon joined by a French edition, and shortly afterwards by many other languages. Large efforts are underway to highlight the international nature of the project. On 1 March 2006, the English Wikipedia hit 1,000,000 articles. On 9 September 2007, the English Wikipedia hit 2,000,000 articles. On 17 August 2009, the English Wikipedia hit 3,000,000 articles. On 20 September 2004 Wikipedia reached a total of 1,000,000 articles in over 100 languages. As of January 2011, there are 266 Wikipedias which have more than 100 articles, 98 of which have over 10,000 articles, and 35 of which have over 100,000 articles. Following the English language Wikipedia, the German, French, Polish, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish editions have over 600,000 articles each. As of September 2011, there are 282 language editions of Wikipedia, which collectively have more than 19 million articles. For detailed statistics, see the list of Wikipedias. In 2004 Wikipedia won the Webby Award for "Community" and the Prix Ars Electronica for "Digital Community". Language versionsTexts about Wikipedia
