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,

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.
Cheers,
Jack
