Hungarian Wikipedia
- View a machine-translated version of the Hungarian article.
- Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
- Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
- You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary is
Content in this edit is translated from the existing Hungarian Wikipedia article at [[:hu:Magyar Wikipédia]]; see its history for attribution.
- You may also add the template
{{Translated|hu|Magyar Wikipédia}}
to the talk page. - For more guidance, see Wikipedia:Translation.

The Hungarian Wikipedia (Hungarian: Magyar Wikipédia) is the Hungarian/Magyar version of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Started on 8 July 2003 by Péter Gervai, this version reached the 300,000-article milestone in May 2015.[1] The 500,000th article was born on 16 February 2022.[2] As of 19 August 2024, this edition has 545,136 articles and is the 29th largest Wikipedia edition.[3]
History
The first Wikipedia related to the Hungarian language was created on 5 September 2001, by Larry Sanger, the English language Wikipedia coordinator at the time. He created the address at http://hu.wikipedia.com/. At that time Wikipedia was still running on UseModWiki. For many months there was little Hungarian content, and there were problems with vandalism.
The Hungarian Wikipedia as it is known today was launched by Péter Gervai on 8 July 2003.[4] On this day, the opening page was made available with a Hungarian interface and in Hungarian, at its current address of http://hu.wikipedia.org/. Since its launch it has been growing steadily, moving up in the multilingual ranking from 34th place in 2003 to 18th place in December 2005[5] and 17th in December 2009,[6] then dropping slightly to 19th place in September 2011.[1]
On 31 October 2010, the Hungarian Wikipedia contained 179,894 articles with 8,992,153 edits by 38 administrators, 153,779 registered users as well as many unregistered ones.[7]
On 14 January 2013, the Hungarian Wikipedia became the first to enable the provision of interlanguage links via Wikidata.
