Guarani Wikipedia

The Guarani Wikipedia (Vikipetã) is the Guarani language edition of the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia.

History
This Wikipedia was created in 2005, thanks to the unusual collaboration between the Lithuanian Šarūnas Šimkus, then a teenager, and Paraguayan academic David Galeano Olivera. The idea is to promote the usage and modernisation of the Guarani language.

In December de 2012, Wikimedia Argentina published a booklet, "Vikipetã mbo’eha kotýpe", devoted to this version of the virtual encyclopedia.

Several workshops on Guarani Wikipedia have been carried out throughout Paraguay, jointly organized by Wikimedia Argentina and Fundación Paraguay Educa (an institution working on the OLPC project).

The University of Leipzig has elaborated a corpus based on Guarani Wikipedia.
