Regarding CIS-A2K work towards Kannada wikipedia
by Ananth Subray 11 Mar '16

11 Mar '16

Hello, Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) is the non-profit organisation with headquarters at San Francisco and maintains all the Wikimedia projects including Wikipedia. WMF gives away four grants : Annual Plan Grant <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG>(APG), Program Engagement Grants <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:PEG> (PEG), Individual Engagement Grants <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG> (IEG) & Travel and Participation Support <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:TPS>(TPS). While IEG and TPS are given to individuals with IEG for (approximately) 6 months duration and TPS for participating in a conference. PEGs are given to community for a time-bound activity, while APG(Annual plan grant ) given to WMF affiliates. For more details you may see: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants. One of the key mandates of the Access to Knowledge (A2K) <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge> program at the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) <http://cis-india.org> is to work towards catalysing the growth of free and open knowledge movement in South-Asia and in Indic languages. CIS has been a steward of the Wikimedia movement in India since December 2008, when Jimmy Wales visited Bangalore. From September 2012, it has been actively involved in growing the movement in India through a grant received from the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) for the period September 2012 to June 2014 and through the FDC Grant received for the period July 2014 to June 2015 & July 2015 to June 2016. These two APGs should have been written with much wider community consultation. Due to paucity of time the entire community may not have been involved. CIS-A2K would like to sincerely apologise for the earlier shortcoming in planning, communication and design of our APG proposals. APG grants are open twice during a year: Round 1- January to December and Round 2- July to June. CIS-A2K has applied for an APG grant under Round 2 for the period July 2016-June 2017. I, on behalf of CIS-A2K, would like to invite suggestions from Kannada community regarding work plan for Kannada Wikimedia projects (Kn.Wikipedia, Kn.Wikisource) under CIS-A2K workplan. I request community members to provide their valuable suggestions to CIS-A2K. Kannada workplan approximately constitutes 1/6th of its budget and work allocation. Our goal is to help/initiate any activity to improve Wikimedia projects but keeping in mind the agency shown by community members. A2K would like to take up activities which add-to and enhance efforts of the community and not replicate existing initiatives rolled out by the community members. Thanks and Regards, *ANANTH SUBRAY P V* Programme associate (Kannada language anchor) Access to Knowledge program The Centre for Internet & Society +91-9739811664

Hello, Wikimedia foundation gives CIS a funding every year to work with Indian language Wikipedias. CIS has further focused its work from 22 langauges to five focus language areas - Kannada, Konkani, Marathi, Odia and Telugu. Every year starting 2013, CIS is supposed to submit a proposal vetted by community in March and gets the funding by July. This year too, CIS-A2K would like to send workplan in these five languages. In this regard, I am writing to you to find out what would be your suggestions to CIS-A2K program. Thanks and Regards, *ANANTH SUBRAY P V* Programme associate (Kannada language anchor) Access to Knowledge program The Centre for Internet & Society +91-9739811664
