The Hindi Wikipedia (Hindi: हिन्दी विकिपीडिया) is the Modern Standard Hindi edition of Wikipedia. It was launched in July 2003. As of April 2023, it has 156,042 articles. In October 2021, there were 72 million page views. It is the first Wikipedia to be written in a variety of Hindustani, followed by the Urdu Wikipedia, launched in January 2004. On 30 August 2011, Hindi Wikipedia became the first South Asian-language Wikipedia to surpass 100,000 articles. Hindi, using the Devanagari script, requires complex transliteration aids to be typed on devices. Thus, a Phonetic Roman Alphabet converter is also available on the Hindi Wikipedia, so the Roman keyboard can be used to contribute in Hindi, without having to use any special Hindi-typing software.
