To: "Discussion list on Indian language projects of Wikimedia." <

hi,
Was very surprised to see a lesson on Wikipedia in my brother's 7th std text book today.
The content is concerning Wikipedia - compares it with an encyclopedia, details about volunteers contributing to Wikipedia, talks about the presence of Indic language Wikipedia, talks about vandalism.
It has the following sub-topics:
1. Introduction
2. What is an encyclopedia?
3. What is Wikipedia?
4. How is Wikipedia created?
5. sidebar: general info on Wikipedia wef September 2009
6. sidebar: How is Wikipedia different from an encyclopedia printed on paper?
7. vandalism
8. Wikipedia policy
9. Request an article
warm regards,
Pradeep
