Hello all,
I have booked an Indic Wikisource Meetup at Wikimania Unconference
<https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Unconference> on 14th August
7:30 PM (IST).
The tables in the Unconference can only accommodate 20 people max. So, if
there are enough interested Indic Wikisourcers, multiple tables can also be
booked for a given period of time, but the inherent structure of the Remo
platform will prevent inter-table interaction among participants, which is
the only disadvantage.
So I would request that Indic Wikisource admins and active proofreaders or
who are willing to participate in Indic wikisource proofread-thon, please
join this meetup. This will fulfill two things.
1) Participate Wikimania 2021
2) Resolve any queries about Indic wikisource proofread-thon 2021 ( Main
Topic)
Regards,
Jayanta
Hello Indic Wikisource proofreaders,
We are happy to announce that the Indic Wikisource Proofreadthon 2021 [1]
is starting from tomorrow 15 August 2021 and will continue up to 31 August
2021.
Like last year, we are facing the devastating effects of COVID-19, we urge
you to stay inside your home to avoid exposure to the deadly virus.
We are also expecting higher participation than the previous contest
We heartily welcome new Wikimedians from various parts of the country to
work on restoring our literary heritage to the digital era. Just like the
previous contest held in November 2020, we again promising to wrap up
everything within the expected timeline after the competition ends. We are
going to keep our promise again. :-)
Welcome you all to the contest.
Regards,
Jayanta Nath
