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,

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
