The ''Viquipèdia'' (Wikipedia in Catalan) was born in March [[2001]], and was the second version to come after the original Wikipedia, in English. During this time it has established its place among the twenty largest Wikipedia languages regarding on number of articles. On [[16 de novembre|November 16th]] [[2004]], it reached the 10,000 entries milestone and, in a year, the ''Viquipèdia'' has doubled the number of articles, reaching the current figure of 20,000. Not just this: the overall quality of the articles has also increased (for instance, the medium size of entries and the number of times they have been edited), the Main Page has been redesigned, its Tavern has a new look, a bunch of ''Viquiprojectes'' (WikiProjects) to improve certain areas of knowledge have been installed, a «this fortnight article» tag has been launched, etc. But there is still a lot to do: ''Viquiportals'' will be released as new ways to understand the world of ''Viquipèdia''; newer ''Viquiprojectes'' and entries will be created that shall help in making Wikipedia in Catalan one of the great references of knowledgement in this language.
 
All this has been possible thanks to the noticeable increase of contributors this year: iforin the last months it has had an average of 314 wikipedians contributing actively, but many more are still needed! Many «important» entries remain yet to be done, and many of those that already exist are far from reaching the standards of quality that one would demand. However, ''Viquipèdia'' is already a useful encyclopedia that can be used in many ways at home, in schools or at work.
 
Everyone can contribute to Wikipedia: any person with an Internet connection can write new entries or edit those already existing. You can help the project by creating or editing entries in the subjects you are interested in: Have you checked out if there are any entries on your village or region, your profession or your interests? It is not necessary to be an expert to contribute to Wikipedia: any constructive contribution is welcome, even if it's only an orthographic correction! You can create totally new entries, or you can adapt them from other sources, provided you respect the author's copyright.
