[16][17] Ivan Lanin, one of the speakers interviewed by Antara, stated that the number of contributors to the Indonesian Wikipedia was rising, and the articles were beginning to become more diverse.

According to Revo's speech, the challenge for the Indonesian Wikipedia in the future was to gain credibility and give the public assurance about the quality of the content provided.

[20] In August 2008, the Indonesian version of CHIP magazine distributed a complimentary DVD containing more than 80,000 articles (without images) with its 11th anniversary edition.

[21] However, a DVD version of the Indonesian Wikipedia with photos was already in existence since April 2008 and could be purchased online from an independent vendor for 20 thousand rupiah, around US$2.

[22] On 3 June 2020, #BoikotWikipedia (#BoycottWikipedia) became trending on Twitter, now known as X,[23] due to Tengku Zulkarnain [id], an ustaz and committee member of Indonesian Ulema Council at the time, complaining about Wikipedia's article on the 1965-66 mass killings and the Communist Party of Indonesia (PKI).

[24] Zulkarnain pressured the chief of the Indonesian National Police Idham Azis and President Joko Widodo to take action and arrest the author.

The Crescent Star Party's leader urged Wikipedia to remove that edit forever, also claiming that the PKI is the sole writer.

The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle states that it is a "reflection of the country's war on history".
