Wikipedia Asian Month is an annual online editing campaign in which volunteers write articles about Asian topics on various language editions of Wikipedia. Each November, participants who add a set number of accepted articles can receive postcards from the organisers, and local ambassadors in each country manage the submissions. The aim is to increase the quantity and quality of content about Asian history, culture, geography and society, and to attract new editors from the region. The 2024 edition ran for the month of November, in line with earlier years, and was one of the regional campaigns of the Wikimedia movement.
