Hi Varinder & Satinder,
Congrats on your new initiative -
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Wild_Flowers.
Since this initiative — Wiki Loves Wild Flowers — doesn't exist in a
compartment but in the Wikiverse, WikiProject India & WikiProject
Plants on en:WP, & all editors are your natural allies in this.
I suggest that the aims of how to do this should be clearly
enunciated. May I propose some for your consideration? :
* Create articles on [[Flora of Punjab]] both in En:WP & Pa:WP.
* Create list articles on [[Wild flowers of Punjab]] both in En:WP & Pa:WP.
* Check out Wikimedia Commons for all the photos of each species
already available. Like this - [[commons:Abutilon_indicum]]
* Select which images are needed & provide those (including close ups
of anatomical features, photos in ecosystem, etc)
* Ensure that articles are created for both en & pa:WPs in case they
don't have any.
Wishing you all the best. Let us know if you need help of any kind. ~~~~

Hi Aswhin,
If you check the project page:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Wild_Flowers,
you will find the the list with scientific names in roman script. Common names haven't
been added in any language yet.
Best
Satdeep

Hi everyone,
I am excited to share with all
of you that User:Varinder Naturaphile previously known as User:ਵਰਿੰਦਰ ਸ਼ਰਮਾ has officially
launched Wiki Loves Wild Flowers today, 22 May 2019 which is the International Day for
Biological Diversity.[1]
Varinder is a member of the Faridkot District Biodiversity Committee and a Coordinator
for documentation of flora and fauna. I am glad that his expertise will help in including
quality content on our platforms. This will range from adding images to Commons to add
local names in Wikidata and possibly create new Wikipedia articles.
Over the next few months, he will be working on the initial list of 124 different species
of wild flowers found in the Punjab region as a pilot.
Your feedback will be deeply appreciated.
