Belarusian Misplaced Pages is the Belarusian language version of Misplaced Pages. There are two Belarusian Wikipedias (Belarusian: Беларуская Вікіпедыя, romanized: Bielaruskaja Vikipiedyja; Taraškievica: Беларуская Вікіпэдыя, Bielaruskaja Vikipedyja): one in the orthography of the Belarusian language which is official in modern Belarus (Narkamaŭka, prefix "be:"), and another one in the pre-reform of 1933, classical orthography (Taraškievica, prefix "be-tarask:", formerly "be-x-old:").

As of October 2023, the most popular editions of Misplaced Pages within Belarus are the Russian Misplaced Pages (with 88.0% of all page views) followed by the English Misplaced Pages (9.1%). The Belarusian Misplaced Pages has much fewer page views in comparison, making up 1.2% of Misplaced Pages requests from Belarus.

History

The first Belarusian Misplaced Pages was started on 12 August 2004. One of its creators and first administrators was Uładzimir Katkoŭski (user name: rydel). Katkouski/rydel (who died in 2007) created over 1,300 articles in the Belarusian Misplaced Pages alone.

Articles in the Belarusian Misplaced Pages were inconsistently written in both variants of the orthography, leading to conflicts between the adherents of the two.

A "clean" version in the official orthography was initiated in the Wikipedias "incubator" at Wikimedia's Meta-Wiki. The application for a new Misplaced Pages was approved in March 2007.

Upon approval, in the evening of the same day, over 6,000 articles written in the pre-reform orthography were transferred from the "be.wikipedia.org" domain to "be-x-old.wikipedia.org", while the 3,500 pages from "Incubator" were moved to "be.wikipedia.org". However, due to a software bug, the move did not go smoothly: in the morning the articles seemed to have disappeared, and users could not log in. This led to a number of news reports that articles in old Belarusian orthography were deleted from Misplaced Pages.

In September 2015, the domain name of the classical orthography Belarusian Wikipedias was changed from be-x-old.wikipedia.org to be-tarask.wikipedia.org, reflecting the official language subtag assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority in 2007.

Including the time in the "incubator", the current variant of be-Misplaced Pages has existed since August 2006.

According to the Belarusian Wikipedian Volha Sitnik, the separation of the two Wikipedias was not very calm at first. However, as of 2023, the communities of the two Wikipedias in Belarusian language are having good relations and cooperate with each other.

Rates of contributions

Initially the official Belarusian Misplaced Pages overtook the classical one, but in about a year, it slowed down, and in fall 2008, the classical one was ahead. Today, the official Belarusian Misplaced Pages has again surpassed the one in the classical orthography.

On 15 March 2008, the official Belarusian encyclopedia reached 10,000 articles.

On 17 June 2009, the classical Belarusian encyclopedia reached 20,000 articles, holding the 65th place among other Wikipedias. At that time, the official Belarusian Misplaced Pages had about 16,000 articles, holding the 71st place.

On 16 November 2010, the official Belarusian encyclopedia reached 25,000 articles.

In August 2015, the official Belarusian encyclopedia reached 100,000 articles.
