Again, the number is negotiable. We shouldn't make it too high, but not too low either as so that it's easy to run out of things to do. Maybe ten articles is more doable?

Dear all, I like the idea of working with Wiki articles. But let's begin with small number. 20 seems to be very big number. Also let's outline and make a framework on how do we outline articles and how to work.

Do each of those languages have a Wikipedia? List composition is left to the national editing communities to decide: they can either make a national list, or make a longer list which combines individual languages' lists. (By language, I mean a Wikipedia which will participate in the program. If, let's say, Konkani or Assamese doesn't want to participate, they are free to do so, but they cannot contribute to the list of articles participating in the program.)

Hi, while I wasn't party to the original conversation, I do have my doubts about this project and its scope in India. We have 20 officially recognised languages in our country. Each. Language has an associated culture with it with is unique. Could be quite a headache.

I was going to suggest something even more modest and have one article per country/language/wiki. If we can do that minimum successfully then next time we can aim for a higher goal. Cheers, Craig On 12/08/2013 8:08 PM, "Jack LEE" jacklee@smu.edu.sg wrote:
Hi,
On the list archives -- OK, though honestly I'm not sure whether I'm prepared to plow through all the archives.
On the cultural exchange programme -- 20 articles per country seems really ambitious, especially if the point was to have some tangible results within three months. I mean, let's say only China, South Korea and the Philippines nominate 20 articles each. That means our friend from Israel who offered to translate these articles for the Hebrew Wikipedia will have 60 articles to translate. I would suggest about two to three articles for a start, and no more than five per country. Finish these first, and then nominate some more.
