Help with RTIs
by Vishnu t 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Dear All, During interactions with many Wikipedians, it has been realized that many are looking for data, that is otherwise not available in the public domain, which could be used for enhancing quality of articles/projects on Wikipedia. I have already filed several RTIs to collect data pertaining to education in each district of Andhra Pradesh, which could be useful for the Village Project. Please let us know if anyone of you requires help in filing RTIs. A2K could file RTIs for any particular data on your behalf. Best regards, Vishnu
