Hello friends,
This is a link I recommend you to bookmark.
http://wiki.wikimedia.in/Geographical_distribution_of_Indian_Wikipedians
This list is useful for outreach & also whenever someone needs Wiki-Help in
a particular city. It would be great if Wikipedians could update this
list.:)
We have the following completely unrepresented states/UTs:
* Andaman & Nicobar Islands
* Arunachal Pradesh
* Assam
* Chandigarh
* Chhattisgarh
* Dadra, Nagar & Haveli
* Daman & Diu
* Goa
* Himachal Pradesh
* Jammu & Kashmir
* Jharkhand (AngPradesh is in Mumbai)
* Lakshadweep
* Manipur
* Meghalaya
* Mizoram
* Puducherry
* Punjab (oye, ye ki hoya!)
* Nagaland
* Uttar Pradesh
* Uttarakhand
Okay, all you admins, please update your status (Mikey my boy, that means
you too)!
Abroad, we dont have Indic Wikipedians listed for:
* Africa
* Australia
* Asia (other than India)
* Middle East
* North America
* South America
Unless you would like to stay off list, of course that's acceptable too.
May I also request Tinu / list admins to please forward it all the Indic
language & city Wikimedia lists. We need this resource to be as
comprehensible as possible.
Warm regards,
Ashwin Baindur

Dear all,
On October 16th, free knowledge enthusiasts all over the world are
celebrating Ada Lovelace day, in memory of Augusta Ada
Byron<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_lovelace>,
the world's first computer programmer. Wikimedians all over the world are
celebrating the day by conducting edit-a-thons, workshops and conferences
mostly aiming to increase female participation in all wikiprojects. Women
Wikimedians in UK are organizing an
edit-a-thon<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History/Royal_…>at
theLibrary of Royal Society<http://royalsociety.org/library/>in London
as a part ofWikiproject: Women's
History<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History>.
Ms. Daria Cybulska, the coordinator of the event, has welcomed
international participation from women Wikimedians around the world. I have
pitched in to run a parallel online edit-a-thon in India.
It gives me pleasure to invite you to participate in this one day long
online edit-a-thon on *19th October* for creating and expanding articles
about women scientists. I have created a list of the pages
here<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History/Royal_…>.
Please feel free to expand the list by adding more names to the list. The
edit-a-thon is open to anybody interested in women's history. Women editors
and newcomers are particularly encouraged to attend. Interested
participants may kindly add your names
here<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History/Royal_…>.
More details can be found on the event page
here<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History/Royal_…>.
Thank you!
Regards
