Hi team,
I tried working on the article on Tripura and came across a huge number of red (dead)
wikilinks. Is there some kind of roadmap for these Wikipedia articles? Or should I start
editing with external references?

Subject: [Wikimedia-in-en] INCOTM Report for March 2012 - A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Hello Wikipedians!
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam was the article selected for the INCOTM for the month of March 2012.
Here’s a short report of how things went by.
During the period under question, A. P. J. Abdul Kalam had 205 edits
from 32 contributors. The number of contributors were more this time,
though the contribs from regular members were missing. Some of the
improvements were-
* Size increased from 1808 words to 2401 words (fair enough).
* Improvements were made to some of the pre-existing sections like "Career as
scientist", "Awards & Honours".
* New sections - "Presidency", "Popular culture" were added to the
article.
* Reference count shooted up from 31 to 73 (which is a great achievement).
* An image of him with Vladamir Putin was added.
* Internal links and grammar were also improved.
However,
* I feel that more work could have been done in this COTM. Some of the regular members
were missing this time. Remember, APJ had got 11 votes.
* More images could have been added considering the popularity of the subject.
* There was very less activity in the latter half of the month. Perhaps, I missed the
feel of collaboration over there.
Anyway, the top editors of A. P. J. Abdul Kalam for the month March 2012 were:
* Hisham
* Karthikndr
* Kondicherry
With toolserver down, I’m not stating the number of edits made by
these folks. To encourage contribution, they have been awarded a
barnstar for taking time and effort to participate. It was all
Karthikndr + Kondicherry show in the beginning and Hisham chipped in
towards the end with what he does best :). I shall be sending WikiLoves
to other contributors as well. :)
All in all, a fair enough COTM. Hoping for some healthy editing on the next month's
COTM - Gateway of India and the GA/FA article of the month - Tripura.
Happy collaborating guys!
Cheers,
