The Arabic Misplaced Pages (Arabic: ويكيبيديا العربية Wīkībīdyā al-ʿArabiyya or ويكيبيديا، الموسوعة الحرة Wīkībīdyā, al-Mausūʿa al-Ḥurra) is the Arabic language version of Misplaced Pages. It started in September 2001. By the end of 2007, it had over 50,000 articles, 200,000 pages, 100,000 registered users and 13 administrators. The Arabic Misplaced Pages is currently the 30th largest edition of Misplaced Pages by article count.
The design of the Arabic Misplaced Pages differs somewhat from other Wikipedias. Most notably, since Arabic is written right-to-left, the location of links is a mirror image of those Wikipedias in languages written left-to-right. Also, the background uses a traditional Arabic geometric tessellation pattern in place of the standard book.
