Dear All,

Sharing some updates and my observations on Telugu Wikipedia based on June '13 statistics.

Telugu Wikipedia crosses 53,000 article mark :)  Consistently for the past 4 months  తెలుగు వికీ | Telugu Wiki community has had more than 35 Active Editors - a new record. Of these 9 have come on board since March 2013 and are consistent with their contribution. June month saw, historically highest ever edits (without bots) in a single month. This clubbed with no unusual increase in article growth could be seen as a sign of slight quality improvement, which could be due to the launch of new projects like Telugu Pramukhulu and Telugu Village project. Or is it too early to say :(

Useful pointers: Try to focus on massive outreach and new editor enrollment drive for few months and club it with on-Wiki support. Keep motivating long time editors (4 very active editors gone on vacation in the last 3 months). More projects...

Game changer: Get the 20 Active Editors in hibernation back on Telugu Wikipedia. But how? Do throw up some ideas :)
