[Wikihi-l] Konkani Wikipedia.

Hi Damodar,

Like Shiju has earlier replied to you ,

There is already a Wikipedia project (in the incubator stage ) for Goanese Konkani. It is available here http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/gom

You can start contributing to it, Inspire others too and gradually make it a standalone language Wikipedia.

If you are interested, I can probably connect you to Gurudath Baliga, Asst Director of Konkani Vishwa Kendra, who is passionate about the same.

Regards Tinu Cherian

P.S. For other Wikipedia Projects in Incubation, You can find them here http://wiki.wikimedia.in/List_of_Indian_language_wiki_projects#Projects_unde...

 Thanks for this informative Mail. "INDIA i.e. BHARAT" has more than

1600 local languages.

GOA is a State with all its communities speaking in one language

"KONKANI" without even

having a Primary School in its own Mother-tongue,as it was ruled by

foreign rulers for

more than four centuries.

Can 'WIKIMEDIA' organization be of any help?

With best regards,

Damodar V. Bale,

Margao-GOA.
