Dear All,

article[1] about Wikipedia (Last section page 4). And on september 2010 an
article[2] on Wikimedia Bangla Community published at September 2010 issue
of Wikimedia India newsletter.
*Imagine a world* in which every single human being can freely share in the
sum of all knowledge. That's our commitment. Please join Bangla Wikipedia[3]
to share your knowledge in the sum of all knowledge.

http://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Kannur_wikipedia_Academy_1

Thanks Belayet bhai and Suparna Roy,
It is a nice idea. But we must remember that Bangla wikipedia is not much rich like English wikipedia. So I recommend to link those wiki pages, which are rich and contain sufficient information. We can take another measure, if we get the list of Bangla wiki article, which will linked from e-Tatthyakosh, we can develop them as firs priority.
