Hi Jeff,
Thanks for clarifying. I have submitted
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Blog/Drafts/Odia-language_Wikimedia_community_celebrates_birthday_of_Odia_Wikipedia_and_Odia_Wiktionary>
a blog draft already that does talk about the anniversaries among other
important things. But that blog having a different theme is not really
going to be centered around the anniversary at all.
Ed, do let me know if another community highlight would make sense. So far,
there has not been a single Wikimedia blog that even has any mention about
Odia Wiktionary (Jeff, this could still be something you might consider! :)
) even though the project has helped build the first free-licensed
Odia-language spell check engine.

Thanks,
Subha

Hi Subha!
Congratulations on the milestone! It's a wonderful testament to all Odia
Wikimedians' hard work. The best place for anniversaries and milestones is
in the blog's community digest, and I believe Ed can help you with that.
We've run social posts on Odia topics recently, and we need to make sure
we share the social media "love" among different communities, especially
considering you are now a WMF employee as well as a community volunteer. As
Ed can tell you, when WMF employees ask for personal posts, I tend to be
firm. : )
If you post a request for support in the Facebook group, people there can
like and share it, and it's not just up to me and the verified accounts.

Try Ed and the blog, and congrats again!
Jeff

Hi Jeff and other friends at WMF,
The Odia Wiktionary is turning 11 on this June 16. The community
is organizing an online campaign so that each Wikimedian in the larger
community will create at least one entry. Here is the event page:
https://or.wiktionary.org/s/o4n
Can you please help spread the word on Twitter and Facebook in about 21
hours from now (considering the time difference between SF and here in
India, that would be the perfect time to catch one's attention)?
There is no Twitter/Faceook presence of Wiktionary but feel free to tag
the community's flagship project Odia Wikipedia (@odiawiki on Twitter and
Fb.com/odiawiki <http://fb.com/odiawiki> on Facebook)
Thanks in advance,
Subha
