Czech Wikipedia (Czech: Česká Wikipedie) is the Czech language edition of Wikipedia.

It was created in May 2002 on a request of a Czech editor of Esperanto Wikipedia. However, at that time, Wikipedia ran on UseMod software. The three pages the Czech version had at the time were lost during the switch to MediaWiki. The oldest currently available edit is from when the Main Page was recopied on 14 November 2002. It reached 1000 articles, many about Esperanto topics, on 20 October 2003.

In June 2005, the Czech Wikipedia reached 10,000 articles and it reached 20,000 in December of the same year. The Main Page was re-designed with more details after reaching this milestone. As of March 24, 2008 there are more than 92,000 articles, 21 administrators, over 34,000 registered users, and dozens of very active contributors.
