The Swedish Wikipedia (Swedish: Svenskspråkiga Wikipedia) is the Swedish-language edition of Wikipedia, started in 2001. A free content online encyclopedia, it is the largest reference work in Swedish history, while consistently ranked as the most visited, or one of the most visited Swedish language websites.[1]

With 2,598,234 articles in a depth of 17.96, it is the fifth largest Wikipedia by article count.[2] It counts 1,938 active users, including 65 one year-elected administrators.[3] Editing collaborations with other interintelligable Scandinavian languages editions is organised by the Skanwiki project. In 2014, it topped relatively as the second largest after English Wikipedia.[4] As with some other editions, the majority of articles are generated by bots,[5] nearly 68% by 2023.[6] Since its beginning in the early 2000s, the content quality assessments have generally gradually improved along with the rest of Wikipedia.[7]

Shortly after the creation of the English Wikipedia on 15 January 2001, more language editions were discussed. The decision to create the Swedish Wikipedia is estimated to around April 2001, then as the 4th language.[citation needed] The Swedish Wikipedia was started on 21 May 2001 as the 13th Wikipedia edition.[8][9] Instrumental Swedish co-founders were Linus Tolke, who partook in the prototype launch, and Dan Koehl, first system operator who pioneered the contemporary installment, corpus, and community. The "Thing", Wikipedia's first akin to an arbitration committee, effectively made Swedish Wikipedia its first independent franchise.

Swedish Wikipedia is owned by the Wikimedia Foundation, an American nonprofit organisation, along with the other language editions. It is supported locally by the national chapter Wikimedia Sweden, founded in 2007 by among others Lennart Guldbrandsson, and Lars Aronsson.
