[Wikimediaindia-l] wikipedia.org.in

I don't think http://wikipedia.in/ is registered by any one. Kindly verify.


But, do we actullay require this site? What is its purpose?  Is it just for
listing link to Indic languages wikis.



*NOTE:* Some Indic languages like Tamil, Bengali, and Urdu are the official
languages in more than one country.
