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

It now has 14,423 articles with 43,265 registered users.

The first Assamese Wikipedia workshop was organized in Guwahati University on 29 January 2012, and later another on 1 February 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]
