The Hindi Wikipedia (Hindi: विकिपीडिया wikipīḍiyā) is the Hindi language edition of Wikipedia, hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. Started in July 2003, the Hindi Wikipedia currently has over 22000 legitimate content articles and nearly 2,000 registered editors (as of July 18, 2007).[1] It was created primarily to cater to the needs of Hindi speaking people, especially from India. As the Hindi Wikipedia uses Indic script (Devanagari), it requires support for complex text rendering.
