Hello everyone,
Just to let you know that Bengali Wikipedia [1] has placed a banner on
their site notice protesting SOPA and PIPA. Maybe other Indic language
Wikipedias can take similar initiatives or maybe they have taken one
already? If so, share with us!
Great! Tamil Wikipedia is discussing a similar proposal to but sitenotice
banners.
In the mean time, I have an translation request for
you. Maybe you have
read Sue's letter [2] to the community about the blackout. I invite you all
to translate that letter in your language. Since we have little time (less
than 17 hours), we need be prompt. See the translation request on Meta-Wiki
[3] and start your translation.
IMHO Practically, its too late for translations.
Get yourself up and let your people know in your
language!
This is more important. Please write SOPA article in your language. Tamil
has a Wikipedia article on SOPA[1] and Wikinews article on the English
Wikipedia blackout against SOPA[2].
