      I have made the changes and published it as a jpeg file. I do not have the timelines/awards details. Let me know about these two so that we can finalize it.

Abhijith,
Nice brochure.  Few suggestions
a)  There is nothing called Hyderabad Chapter of Wikimedia India. It is Hyderabad Special Interest Group of Wikimedia India
b) Could not notice whether any of the photographs are from Hyderabad. Good to have one  atleast from Hyderabad
c) You may try to bring the brochure file size  down to couple of mega bytes. Currently it is 16 MB.
d) You may like to give some key dates  of the event.
If award information can be made public, the brouchure can  generate more interest.
Regards
Arjuna

Hi everyone,
I wanted to gather your
 comments for a flyer we have designed for circulation about WLM. I have attached the same to this email - please let me know your comments, we can modify it accordingly and once we finalize, I request everyone on this list to forward this flyer to your friends/peers.
This is for Hyderabad Chapter - if others wish to use it, it is a photoshop edit worthy pdf so you can open it up using photoshop and edit it accordingly.
Dr. Rajasekhar,
I wanted to check if tomorrow the english wiki folks from hyderabad are meeting up ? what time?

Thats great! Good to see some responses going.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
For a start, i think we should chat up - Abhijith, Tausif and
...
...
...
...
Rahmanuddin. Let us decide on a comfortable time when we can connect over
...
...
...
...
Google+ or something. Would be great if we could do that over this weekend
...
...
...
...
itself (considering that it is a long weekend)
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Post which, we can probably post our ideas to the group, after which we
...
...
...
...
can just start off.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Kindly suggest a time that would work best. Tomorrow evening would be
...
...
...
...
ideal for me, but ya, anything else in the normal holiday non-sleeping
...
...
...
...
hours (between 1100 and 0100 hours) should also be fine!

...

Hi Raghavendra,

...
...
...
...
...

I suggest let us do the plan  - chalk out our strategy and event
...
...
...
...
details - what/when/how; marketing strategy. And then we can approach the
...
...
...
...
media - my view is it is better to have all details chalked out, let me
...
...
...
...
know if you want to do a phone chat or may be meet up to discuss?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...

That's great idea Abhijith, but do focus on *why, *it would generate
...
...
...
...
long time contributors.

Hi Abhijith,
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Was actually waiting to see if we would find any more people who would
...
...
...
...
be interested.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Anyways, as far as i can see, as a part of the plan, we will need to
...
...
...
...
chalk out the following for Hyderabad:
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
a) Have an overall framework ready - i am sure that would already be in
...
...
...
...
place, from wikimedians in other cities. We might just need to tweak it to
...
...
...
...
suit Hyderabad
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Famework?? I was part of organising team for Wiki Takes Mumbai II,
...
...
...
...
hence I can share how we worked for our city, and hope it will also work in
...
...
...
...
your city.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
b) Started spreading the word around. Was thinking we can involve
...
...
...
...
people who are couchsuring in Hyderabad to be a part of this. This will
...
...
...
...
really help increase the contributions since we do have a decent number of
...
...
...
...
travellers touring Hyderabad in this part of the year
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
You can start involving your friends. I suggest, Facebook is the best
...
...
...
...
way of word of mouth, and hence create a Facebook group for Hyderabad
...
...
...
...
Wikipedians, you'll get members count because of the work Wikipedia.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
c) It will be great if there was a press release kind of a thing done
...
...
...
...
for the entire event as such from somewhere with atleast a mention of the
...
...
...
...
participating cities. Or, if it is fine, we can provide information to the
...
...
...
...
local editions/newsmen. However, for this, we will need the help and
...
...
...
...
participation of the official members of wikimedia (read, Karthik :-) )
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
I'll get back after talking to people from Wikimedia India Chapter.
...
...
...
...
They must be having contacts :)
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
d) We can start the event/contest off by having a small briefing
...
...
...
...
session during the first weekend of September. And if we are confident of
...
...
...
...
having a good turnout (or may be even otherwise), we can probably look at
...
...
...
...
conducting this at Lamakaan
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
It will be great if you have a meetup this August end, but early
...
...
...
...
September will also do. I'll try to attend if time permits :) My college
...
...
...
...
schedule must help tho, but would be excited to meet.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
e) May be on the first and second weekends, we can organise - "Wiki
...
...
...
...
takes Hyderabad", and on the last weekend, again get together for any
...
...
...
...
queries that people have. I feel the meetings should be brief and to the
...
...
...
...
point, so that the maximum time can be spent in the primary purposing of
...
...
...
...
capturing pictures
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
I suggest meetup should also focus on how and why to upload images to
...
...
...
...
Commons? This is where people lack knowledge, and never participate hence.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
How does this sound? Any suggestions/brickbats?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Wanna add one more: Try to talk to some photographic societies. Those
...
...
...
...
groups have senior and very high-esteemed photographers, they will be very
...
...
...
...
much interested. This is what we did for Mumbai.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
@Karthik, can you let us know what you think?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Excited to coordinate with you all, hoping for great to happen and
...
...
...
...
see Hyderabad community expanding. Happy to be part :)
...
...
...
...
Raghavendra and Abhijhit, you both can take lead and can happen well.
...
...
...
