Encyclopedic overview
The Ossetian Wikipedia (Iron Ossetic: Ирон Википеди, romanized: Iron Vikipedi) is the Ossetian-language edition of the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia. It was created on 28 February 2005. With approximately 22,000 articles, it is currently the 134th-largest Wikipedia as measured by the number of articles. Since its creation, the Ossetian Wikipedia has been called "what is perhaps the only website written entirely in Ossetian."
On 3 March 2010, the Ossetian Wikipedia made headlines in local newspapers for reaching a double milestone. The edition was five years old and had just passed the 5000 articles threshold.
