About seven years after Tulu Wikipedia went live, it has more than doubled in size and has over 2,100 articles now. It had a little over 1,000 articles when it went live on August 6, 2016, at the Wikiconference India, 2016, at Chandigarh, in which Katherine Maher, Executive Director, Wikmedia Foundation, U.S., had announced the new project.
