I hang my head in shame on this as I hail from Madurai. :( Anyway, we're trying (off-list) to get a Tamil Wiki academy along with the Malayalam academy as there is a Tamil Wikipedian teaching and researching at MKU, the venue of the program!

I agree. This is quite an initiative. Malayalam Academy deep in Tamil land!!! :-)
ML wikipedians - You are really raising the bar!
Just curious was there a Tamil Wikipedia Academy in Madurai ever?
What next Malayalam wikipedians?
A national roadshow of Malayalam Academies in every state?
With the enthusiasm and passion seen, I would n't be surprised!
Kudos, this is great stuff!
