On a related note, <a href="http://wikimedia.in">wikimedia.in</a> is parked by User:Omshivaprakash . We could also use this. Though i agree that we must get <a href="http://wikipedia.in">wikipedia.in</a> from the cybersquatter. <br>

</div>They have a published dispute resolution policy:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.registry.in/.IN%20Domain%20Name%20Dispute%20Resolution%20Policy%20%28INDRP%29" target="_blank">http://www.registry.in/.IN%20Domain%20Name%20Dispute%20Resolution%20Policy%20(INDRP)</a><br>
<br>
The relevant clauses are 4 & 6, possibly 7. Is Wikipedia registered as<br>
a trademark in India? Reading clause 4, I'm not sure anyone except the<br>
holder of a trademark will be able to challenge a registration. Have a<br>
look at the decisions they've put up on the website. They complainant<br>
seems to have an Indian trademark or to have applied for one in most cases:<br>
