For those who are new to the idea of Wikimedia Bangladesh Chapter & its creation process, I would suggest pls go through the meta page of Wikimedia Bangladesh Chapter. There you will find details about a Wikimedia Chapter, its purpose & activities, about Wikimedia Bangladesh, steps to follow for formation of the chapter, draft of proposed memorandum of association & other related materials.
We have formally submitted a draft of proposed memorandum of Wikimedia Bangladesh to the Chapter committee & they are reviewing it. Members of the chapter committee & other interested people from different existing chapters are subscribing to wikimedia-bd mailing list for this purpose. Hence, we initiated this thread in English for easier understanding of those who don't know Bangla.
Hope every one is clear regarding the language of this thread. Inviting all to participate actively in this discussion.
Thanks

Dear Wikipedians,
I am very pleased to announce our initiative to create an official Bangladesh chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation, named Wikimedia Bangladesh. Maybe many of you already know: currently the existence of this chapter is unofficial, but we believe it is time to get an official identity to promote free knowledge all over Bangladesh more efficiently. We have already formed a small work-group to work in this process [1].
Wikimedia Bangladesh will be a non-profit organisation devoted towards promoting Wikipedia and related projects and creating public awareness in Bangladesh.
To kick-start the process, we have contacted the Chapters Committee [2] of the Wikimedia Foundation. We also updated our chapter page [3] on Meta-Wiki [4]. We have also submitted the draft of our Memorandum of Association [5]. Currently the creation of this chapter is under active consideration by the Chapters Committee.
We invite Bangladeshi wikipedians to support the Wikimedia Bangladesh chapter and review the official memorandum of understanding. Please reply in this thread and provide your invaluable feedback.
With regards,
Ragib Hasan User:Ragib on en/bn
