<div class="gmail_quote">**Please Cross Post this on your Country List.
This has been Cross Posted on various mailing lists so apologies if you
have received it more than once**<br><br>Hiya,<br><br>We are please to
announce that WMF has granted a few scholarships (maximum of 5) for
persons outside of India to attend WikiConference India 2011 (WCI 2011 -
<a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2011" target="_blank">http://meta.wikimedia.org/<u></u>wiki/WikiConference_India_2011</a><u></u>). WCI 2011 will take place in Mumbai, India between 18-20 November 2011.<br>
<br>WCI 2011 is the first conference of its kind
being held in India and is intended to become an annual national
flagship event for Wikipedia/Wikimedia in the country. It is meant to
provide a common platform for all Indian Wikimedians to meet and share
their views, discuss challenges and exchange useful tips, best practices
and other information.<br><br>Anyone residing outside of India is
eligible to apply, but since this is an India specific conference they
would need to demonstrate how by being present at the conference they
can help the movement in India or improvement of indic languages. It is
also necessary that those receiving the scholarship present something at
WCI 2011. <br>
<br>The scholarships will cover Travel to and Fro Mumbai (economy),
Accommodation (similar to what is being offered to Indian Scholars) and
Visa fees (if you need one).<br><br>Please do make your application as
strong as possible given that there are few scholarships and we expect a
huge number of applications: <a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2011/Call_for_Participation" target="_blank">http://meta.wikimedia.org/<u></u>wiki/WikiConference_India_<u></u>2011/Call_for_Participation</a><br>
<br>Kindly note given that there is less than a month to go and that
Visa applications etc. will take time, we have set an <b>application
deadline of 23:59 IST on Saturday 22nd October 2011</b>. Only applications
received before the deadline will be considered.<br>
<br>Looking forward to hosting five of you at WCI 2011!<br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>Kind Regards,<br>Pranav Curumsey<br>Chairperson - Organising Committee<br>WikiConference India 2011<br>
