Not having expectations is not anybody's fault.<br>Simply saying that the chapter isn't doing anything for your community and is doing for thr other without substantial proof is however somebody's fault.<br>I'll let you figure out whose fault it is. <br>

<div><br></div>
<div>The India chapter just started operations a few months back, isn't it prudent for all to wait and see how it is evolving before opening up chapters all over. A non-starter is as good as not having one. With as much respect to all who is behind the initiative for a Delhi chapter, I honestly think you should give reasonable time to the India Chapter and the Foundation office being setup in Delhi to mature before embarking on having more chapter offices in India.</div>

I'm pretty sure this age rule is commons throughout the country. If it is, even if you do get a chapter, you'll have to wait 5 years to be a member.<br>
You're13. The same age, I was when I joined Wikipedia.<br>I suggest you concentrate on your edits.<br>I see you have good language skills, why don't you focus on local wikiprojects?<br>Or help me translate Huggle to Hindi or Samskrit? <br>

<p>Just to point out, our community was going super strong in the first half of 2009, before our first meetup at Tinu Cherian's house in July 2009. We were colaborating, discussing and working together, on Wikipedia itself. Without the mailing list, knowing each other, offline, on Facebook or Twitter ... <br>
Ask anyone in the Banglore community, purely by using Users talk pages we got several GA and FA level articles. Gdibyendu, SBC-YPR, me and Logicwiki got Transport in India elevated to GA, without knowing each other offline.<br>
