The Assamese Wikipedia is the Assamese language edition of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Its domain came into existence on June 2, 2002. In July 2015, it had reached 3,600 articles.[2][3]

It now has 13,089 articles with 40,596 registered users.

The first Assamese Wikipedia workshop was organized in Guwahati University on January 29, 2012, and later another on February 1, 2012, at the Tezpur University in Tezpur to inform people how to edit and add to the wiki. Later on, many other workshops have been organized by community members in different places in Assam.[4][5][6][7]
