由於粵文維基建立時主要參與者係香港地區嘅人，因此喺粵文維基嘅文章形成咗統一使用繁體嘅傳統。呢層曾經引起簡體中文用戶嘅不滿，並令到部分人認為粵文維基百科排斥簡體字用戶。為咗繁體字同簡體字問題，粵文維基曾經進行過多次討論。
Since the main participants of the Cantonese wiki were people from Hong Kong when it was founded, there was a tradition of using traditional Chinese for articles on the Cantonese wiki. This layer has caused dissatisfaction among Chinese Simplified Chinese users and led some to believe that Cantonese Wikipedia excludes Simplified Chinese users. The issue of traditional and simplified Chinese characters has been discussed many times on the Cantonese wiki.
