[[www.wikiquote.org portal|Wikiquote]] had quotations with over 2,500 articles in six languages in June 2004, one year after its first proposal under a domain ''wikiquote org''. Some language-speakers other than English requested their own subdomain and in July they were created. Then Wikiquotes in languages like German, French, Italian and Polish started. |

The Wikiquote project is expanding slowly but steadily. At the end of September there were about 15 Wikiquotes, both large and small. On December 1, there were 24 Wikiquote projects. There were almost 6,500 articles in total on December 2004. At the end of May 2005 the number of articles in total reached 14,000. As of February 2006, it included nearly 30,000 pages in over 30 languages. As of May 2007, it included over 60,000 pages in 87 languages. As of June 2008, it included over 80,000 pages in 89 languages. |

The largest Wikiquote is English with over 15,000 articles at June 2008. The next largest are German, Italian, Polish, Slovak, Portuguese and Russian; all six have over 4,000 articles. |

An Alemannic Wikiquote has been created as separate namespace within Alemannic Wikipedia: [[:w:als:Spruch:Houptsyte|Alemannischi Spruchsammlig (Wikiquote)]]. |

== Challenge == |
|||
Sometimes the Wikiquote project faces troubles and challenges. One of the most remarkable challenges was copyright issues on the French Wikiquote. To avoid problems, on March 2006 the Foundation decided to [[Wikiquote FR/Closure of French Wikiquote|take it down]], erase all its material and relaunch it. For details, see [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2006-March/019857.html the announcement from the Foundation]. |
|||
However, devoted editors rescued the situation. They settled their charter and polices, and [[q:fr:Accueil|French Wikiquote]] was relaunched on December 4, 2006. |
