On 8 April 2002, Chuck Smith created an {{w|English Wikipedia}} article titled "Toki Pona language".<ref>Chuck Smith (8 April 2002). [http://forums.tokipona.org/viewtopic.php?t=13 Toki Pona - Wikipedia article]. ''Toki Pona Forums''. Retrieved 19 November 2023.</ref> Wikipedia then had only about 30&nbsp;000 articles.<ref>[https://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaEN.htm Wikipedia Statistics English]. Wikimedia. Retrieved 19 November 2023.</ref>
 
In 2005, the article was nominated for deletion, but was kept.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Toki_Pona|title=Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toki Pona|website=English Wikipedia|access-date=2023-12-28}}</ref> In 2007, it was renominated and deleted,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Toki_Pona_(2nd_nomination)|title=Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toki Pona (2nd nomination)|website=English Wikipedia|access-date=2023-12-28}}</ref> butthen reinstated with newfound sources.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_July_9|title=Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 July 9|website=English Wikipedia|access-date=2023-12-28}}</ref>
 
In 2008, the article became a language and literature good article, albeit through a vague review.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Toki_Pona/GA1</ref> In 2010, it was delisted due to many unreferenced sections, inconsistent citation formatting, overreliance on primary sources and [[personal website]]s, and excess detail. The reassessment's only reply agreed, "As a major writer of the article, &hellip; it doesn't feel particularly {{abbr|GA|good article}} to me. More fun than encyclopedic."<ref name=":12">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Toki_Pona/GA2</ref><ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sonjaaa&oldid=371038617#GA_reassessment_of_Toki_Pona</ref>
 
Two more failed deletion nominations arose in 2012<ref name=":0">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Toki_Pona_(3rd_nomination)</ref> and 2013.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Toki_Pona_(4th_nomination)|title=Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toki Pona (4th nomination)|website=English Wikipedia|access-date=2023-12-28}}</ref><ref name="wikipedia-deletion-forums">{{cite web|url=http://forums.tokipona.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=2203|title=toki pona article on wikipedia up for deletion|website=Toki Pona Forums|name={{tok|jan Mato}}|username=janMato|date=2013-03-16|access-date=2023-12-28}}</ref>
