See the <a href="http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimediaindia-l/2011-September/004426.html">Narayam extension</a> integrated to Tamil, Malayalam, Sanskrit Wikipedias. Also Bengali, Hindi, and Marathi wikipedias use a similar tool developed by Junaid. <br>
<br>But to integrate additional typing schemes to Kannada wikipedia, support from few Kannada wikipedians is required. We need to test the typing schemes before it is integrated to wikipedia. <br><br>Please let me know in case any support is required regarding this.<br>

Congratulations on this. It's really good to see the level of interest it's generated. I especially loved reading the bit about them being shown the basics of editing and being encourage to start editing and actually starting 3 new articles. Wonderful stuff. I'm sure we'll see many more of this. </div>
