[2] In February 2006, the Bokmål/Riksmål edition became the thirteenth Wikipedia to have more than 50,000 articles, and one year later it was the fourteenth to reach 100,000.

[5] Norwegian, Danish, and Swedish are mutually intelligible languages and can be understood by most speakers of each.

One effect of this combined effort is the sharing of their weekly featured front-page articles among these four different Wikipedias.

The Norwegian Wikipedia was launched on 29 November 2001, and initially there were no precise rules governing the writing of articles in a particular dialect.

In April 2007, Noregs Mållag, an organization dedicated to the promotion of Nynorsk, donated 50,000 Norwegian kroner to the administrator and bureaucrat of the section Ranveig Mossige Thattai for the development of the Nynorsk section.

[9] The contributors to the Nynorsk Wikipedia used Apertium to perform machine translation between Nynorsk and Bokmål,[6] and also collaborated with Wikipedia sections in other continental Scandinavian languages as part of the Skanwiki meta-project.
