The Cantonese Wikipedia is the Cantonese language edition of Wikipedia, run by the Wikimedia Foundation. It started on 25 March 2006.
As a small community, from early on, Cantonese wikipedians have formed the consensus to follow by default the policies, guidelines, and customs of the English Wikipedia, wherever they are applicable. This consensus has provided stability and allows wikipedians to concentrate on the content. As of November 1, 2007, the Cantonese Wikipedia has over 110000 edits, over 5800 articles, and more than 3400 registered users, 11 of which are administrators.
Cantonese is one of the five regional Chinese tongues to have its own Wikipedia. The other four are: Minnan Wikipedia (Main Page), Mindong Wikipedia (Main Page), Wu Wikipedia (Main Page), and Hakka Wikipedia (Main Page). It is also the second largest Wikipedia edition of Chinese languages (including Classical Chinese Wikipedia).
