The Volapük Wikipedia (Volapük: Vükiped Volapükik) is the Volapük-language edition of the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia. It was created in February 2003, but launched in January 2004. As of 3 June 2026, it is the 106th-largest Wikipedia as measured by the number of articles, with 51,718 articles, and the third-largest Wikipedia in a constructed language, after the Esperanto Wikipedia and the Ido Wikipedia.
The edition is most notable for raising questions about the role of bots on Wikipedia, which initiated the development of policies and alternative measures of Wikipedias' quality. Its large number of bot-generated articles brought attention to the Volapük language, which often exemplifies the extent of Wikipedia's multilingualism across national, minority, dead, and constructed languages alike.
