We wanted to start something similar for the Indian Wikimedia communities. In February and June this year, CIS-A2K conducted Train the Trainer <http://cis-a2k/Events/Train%20the%20Trainer%20Program>(TTT) and MediaWiki Train the Trainer < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/MediaWiki_Train_the_Trainer_… After conducting these two events, and communicating with the participants we found the necessity to start a training program that we’ll be running on regular basis, and from there we conceived this “Train-a-Wikipedian” program. Initially, we will be concentrating on these 5 Indian languages Wikis: 1) Kannada, 2) Konkani, 3) Marathi, 4) Odia, 5) Telugu. But, we may expand soon, if our program is a success. In our TAW main page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Train-a-Wikipedian>, we have listed a number of topics those we will be discussing during our training. We hope to conduct hangout or webinar sessions. Thanks.
