Hello everyone,
I hope you are all healthy and safe during these difficult times. I expect
that this news might cheer all Wikisource enthusiasts out there!
I am happy to introduce Sohom Datta
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Soda/>! He is one of the students that
the Wikimedia Foundation has selected for the current round of Google
Summer of Code. He is a first year student of Bachelor’s in Computer
Science and Engineering. He will be working on creating a widget to easily
create pagelists on Wikisource. Sam Wilson (primary mentor) and I
(co-mentor) will be mentoring this project.
This project was prioritized because Index creation wizard
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2020/Wikisource/I…>
was one of the highly voted proposals in Community Wishlist Survey 2020
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2020>, coming at
6th spot, but couldn’t make it to the Top 5. More updates on the next steps
related to the Wishlist process will follow shortly.
Further details and progress related to this project can tracked on the
related phabricator ticket:

Feel free to provide any feedback that you might have related to the
project on the phabricator ticket. We will be regularly providing updates
to the community as well.
P.S. Sohom also contributes to English Wikipedia and English Wikisource in
his free time under the username: Sohom data
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Sohom_data>.
Stay Safe!
