Ravi, META was just a suggestion. Local wikis are fine too.

Srikanth,
We have selected such spokespersons through a vote in Tamil Wikipedia
itself. (similar to sysop voting process). Since Tamil Wiki is a close knit
community, we proposed around 12 names and all were elected unanimously.
After having this team of 12, we form subgroups for various purposes. So
for the Govt contest we have a team of 5. For interacting with corporates
and representing in Wikimedia chapter we support Sundar. I help in media
connections etc., Some take care of reaching immigrant Tamil people. So,
while we have an understanding and authorization from community, we also
have various faces for various tasks.
These people are spread across various parts of India and the World. Having
more names gives a sense of inclusiveness for all. We also have non-sysops
and fresh faces among these 12.
So it is best to do this process in local wiki and inform this mailing list
/ chapter so people can redirect to the right persons. META wiki need not be
involved in this.

vote on someone from each indian language to represent that particular wiki
