@Orbilius, I will get in touch with you to start working on the Italian
Case Study.
@Gerard: There aren't a lot of statistics but
http://francisco.dance/wikigrowth/ might help. If you check the statistics
for Wikisource, you will see that Indic Wikisources are the ones with the
maximum growth in the last year. These statistics aren't designed for
Wikisource but this still shows the value that the Indic communities see in
Wikisource especially when there is an unavailability of online sources
(Project Gutenberg etc.)

Hoi,
Most Wikimedians are not award how important Wikisource is for the
languages from India. Satdeep do you have some documentation, some
statistics to share with us?
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
I am re-sending this email as the previous one sent on April 8 didn't go
through.
So, as an effort to document projects related to Wikisource, we have
started by writing the first case study about *Bengali Wikisource 10th
Anniversary Proofreading Contest
<https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Case_studies/Bengali_Wikisource_10th_Anniversary_Proofreading_Contest>*
held
in 2017 with the help of contest organizers Bodhisattwa
<https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Bodhisattwa> and Jayantanth
<https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Jayantanth>.
If you know about, or have organized interesting Wikisource related
projects that you would like to be documented in form of a case study, feel
free to reach out to me at sgill[image: ﹫]wikimedia.org.
