Hi, If one has to include english words and link them, how to go about it?, so that i can do that while i'm writing in their kannada definitions. Regards, Rohith.

I'm not sure about this, my dear friend. Few of my friends reported the same problem with mozilla firefox, I'm still figuring out if its a problem with browser... please try in other browsers and let me know. I myself had this problem with the kannada version of mediawiki newsletter once on netscape, but strangely enough, it was rectified on a restart of the browser. Please refer this: http://kn.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Kannada_Support doc for the gory details. I'm ccing this mail to the kannada wikipedia list. Lets checkout with our other friends if they experienced the same. meanwhile, I would appreciate a screenshot if possible from your side, so that if its a browser bug, I can file the bug with the screenshot. cheers, - h.p.

questions about Wiktionary
by Rohith Ajjampur 11 Nov '04

Hello Wiktionarians, I have created a few words and their meanings, but i have some questions regarding the maintenance of the same: - is it necessary to provide links to English words in Kannada wiktionary? - all the pages need to be converted to Kannada, as is the case with Kannada wikipedia, is it on the cards? - we might have to come up with a policy to include words, probably with their role in a sentence and with some examples too, can we discuss this in the list? I'll be very happy to lend my helping hand in maintaining wiktionary, let's come up with a policy soon and a set of delegated responsibilities along with it. Regards, Rohith.

Kannada Wikipedia reaches 50 articles...
by H P Nadig 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

hi folks, Started around a month back, Kannada wikipedia [http://kn.wikipedia.org/], the Kannada version initiative of free Encyclopedia on the net - wikipedia*, has come to a milestone down the lane to reach first 50 articles in its garner. It has fast become a place on the web where there's already quite a bit of information reagarding kannada and kannada related stuffs. Kannada wikipedia is now the *fourth largest* Indian language wikipedia behind Hindi and Sanskrit. Thanks to all the initial contributors, and all those people who took their sweat out besides their regular work for helping expand the kannada wikipedia. As the overlooking sys-op on the project, I would like to mention the volunteers, Pramod R (admin at kannada.sf), Mr. Ashwattha mattur, Mr. CK Major, for all the efforts they put in to realising this. Thanks to the wikipedia folks (kturner & brion) for the technical help they streched forward for the 'all Kannada' interface for the wikipedia & thanks to Angela Beasley[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Angela] for the support all the way through this effort. All the editing and producing content in Kannada *wouldn't have been possible* without the Baraha direct tool [http://baraha.com/] on windows, and Pramod's Nudi keyboard [http://kannada.sourceforge.net/nudi.tar.gz] for Linux. Thanks the respective developers for such nice tools. We hope to see more people getting involved in this knowledge movement and help realise a complete kannada knowledge bank, a first kannada online encyclopedia!. If you are interested in contributing to this free open-content project, Please visit http://kn.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Community_Portal for details. There is also a mailing list for discussion on Kannada wikipedia. Please visit http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikikn-l to subscribe to it.

News section
by Ashwatha Matthur 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

Hi Everyone, my apologies for temporarily screwing up the news section - it has stabilized now :) If you were at Wikipedia for the last hour or so, you probably saw crazy images appearing multiple times - that was just me and my ignorance regarding handling templates - I couldn't use the preview mode to verify stuff since that doesn't give you an idea of how the different templates interact together. Anyway, it seems ok now - please edit Template:ಸುದ್ದಿ if you would like to add more news items - maybe we should add news items with more relevance to karnataka - I simply added one line regarding the US elections because they were in the news and because I easily found an image from the english wiki news section ;-) Anyway, will start in earnest on the news section tomorrow - thanks, Ashwatha. -- Goto, n.: A programming tool that exists to allow structured programmers to complain about unstructured programmers.
