Dear committee members,
I have approached the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) in India, a
WMF grantee, whose Access To Knowledge program has been supporting and
encouraging the Tulu Wikipedia development efforts, to help identify a
scholar who could verify the content.
Here is their response (I've copy-edited slightly):
We can recommend the name of Prof Purushothama Bilimale. He holds the
Kannada Chair at JNU, Delhi. A Kannada Wikipedia
article about him is
here -
https://kn.wikipedia.org/s/10uo.
His brief bio – Scholar in Kannada and Tulu languages, ex Prof &
researcher at Kannada Univ, Hampi; ex Director (of a section) at
American Institute of Indian Studies, Delhi and currently
Kannada Chair at JNU, Delhi. He was a member of the Karnataka Folk
Academy.
He has guided 8 persons for PhD. Written many books in the area of folk
culture and literature. He is a recipient of Karnataka Rajyotsava Award.
Currently he is video documenting folk culture of Kodagu district.
His email is <redacted> and phone number is <redacted>. Since he is in
some village in
Kodagu district till May 30, his phone may not be reachable all the time.
Same is true
with email.
I [Dr. Pavanaja U. Bellippady from CIS-A2K --AB] have spoken to him and
he has kindly agreed to do the evaluations.
Since this is a public and archived list, whoever wants to contact Prof.
Bilimale -- please say so and I will e-mail you privately with his contact
information.
Cheers,
A.
