History
[edit | edit source]The Kurdish Wikipedia established on 7 January 2004,[2] designed to contain articles in Kurmanji and Sorani at the same time. On 12 August 2009, Kurdish Wikipedia separated into two versions due to technical and linguistic issues. The old version (ku.) remained as Kurmanji Kurdish Wikipedia and a new version (ckb.) created for Sorani Kurdish Wikipedia.
