Hello folks,
I (once again) came across this issue and googled a bit. I've found out
couple of resources, both of which are quite outdated but they might be
good starting points (and someone on the list might be interested). I
haven't tried any of them. Do post on the list if anyone finds this good. :)

Best,

Hey Ram! Welcome to mediawiki-india :)
Agreed on all points, and I see some parts where we could collaborate and
start putting together stuff. If I'm reading this right, here are the
potential projects that might be done:
1. A default mediawiki installation bundle (MW + A bunch of Extensions)
2. A default 'templatekit' (Commonly used templates from enwiki / other
wikis)
3. Better 'levels' of information/deetail on the Manual
Perhaps we could start doing internal hackathons (online, with experienced
people from the India MW community pitching in) to do these things? These
won't be workshops, but online events for us to get stuff done. Thoughts?
Semantic Mediawiki is a lot of fun (despite a few performance problems
that prevent it from being used on large wikis). Nischay is a contributor
for SMW from India, but I don't think he's on this list yet. I'll forward
this to him and see what we can do about that too!
Thanks!
P.S. I'll forward this to mediawiki-l in a while, since I think it is
relevant there too.
