The Eastern edition domain came into existence on 3 June 2002[4][5] but the first three articles were only written in August 2004.

Wiki-events and workshops to improve this Wikipedia and increase number of editors are conducted on a regular basis.

In October 2015 a seminar was organised at an event in Amritsar, where 148 students from 17 schools participated.

The Western edition was started on 24 October 2008 via the Wikimedia Incubator, and its domain came into existence on 13 August 2009.

The project was pioneered by Khalid Mahmood, a college professor from Islamabad.
