Forwarding this to the kn-wiki list as this has some answers for FAQ on kannada wikipedia. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Hari Prasad Nadig <hpnadig(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, 5 Jan 2005 01:58:45 +0530 Subject: Re: hi To: nilagriva nilagriva <nilagriva(a)gmail.com> I'm glad you already know about kananda wikipedia. It was started in full scale by me around september end. Now, we have a good number of contributors, with me and ashwath doing most of the editing work. You can write anything that fits into an encyclopedia (vishwakosha). It might be anything that you are interested in and want people to know about it (facts, science, culture, saahithya, people... etc) But there are hardly any contributors on the sanskrit wikipedia. I would love to see someone who's well versed in sanskrit contributing there (me studied sanskrit as my first language, but am still far away from writing my own articles in it). I'm a sysop and co-maintainer, volunteer at both sanskrit wikipedia and kannada wikipedia. So, you can get back to me for any kind of help, assistance that I can give you. There's a list for kannada wikipedia discussion. See if you can sign up yourself there: http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikikn-l Wikipedia is something where anybody can login and edit anything on it. You can head there right away and practice on sandbox. If at all you're new to the wiki way of editing, please consult http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page for any other info, feel free to mail back to me. cheers, - h.p.
