In January, a team of 20 students participated in an edit-a-thon to support the Bidar Wikipedia project. A workshop is planned for “phase two” on April 12, where students and staff can be trained in Wikipedia.

Bidar Wikipedia wants everyone to be involved with their Wikipedia articles. “We will put up boards containing excerpts from Wikipedia article and Quick Response Codes in front of tourist places and monuments.”

Thanks,
