A Community Communications
Kit<http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_Communications_Kit>is
being created for the 10th anniversary celebrations.
Quoting from this:
"The first—and most important—thing we can do right now is tell our own
stories <http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Stories> in our own words and
encourage others who care about our work to do the same. Over the past 10
years, what has Wikipedia come to mean to the world? How will it impact the
next ten years? If you don't have a blog or aren't comfortable sharing your
story with media, you can include it
here<http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Stories>
."
Hope we'll see some stories and contributions from India!
Cheers

Subject: [Wikimedia-in-blr] Wikipedia:TEN Celebrations
To: "Mailing list for Wikimedians / Wikipedians in Bangalore, India" <
wikimedia-in-blr(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hi all,
10th anniversary celebrations of Wikipedia is on 15th Jan 2011 and most of
you must be knowing we are planning for some celebrations in Bangalore as
well. This is a place holder thread where I would request you all to put
forth your ideas. We are meeting this Sunday and planning for this is part
of the agenda. But it would be better we start the discussion here and then
take over in the coming regular monthly meetup. This will also help us get
ideas from people who are unable to attend the coming meetup.
http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangalore is pretty much empty now, but IMO
would be nice to be have something by this weekend.
Regards
Srikanth.L

Dear Abhay ,
I suppose you will be attending upcoming Mumbai Meetup tomorrow.As suggested by Mr.Anay and Ms.Bishakha please take the opportunity to discuss with Ms.Dnyanada and other wikipedians if they can initiate/support some kind of direct indirect presence/intro about Marathi wikipedia at upcoming Marathi Sahitya Sammelan at Thane on coming 25/26/27 December.Or May be we can request Mumbai Wikipedian to arrange next month meet up at Thane coinciding the same days and in the same area.
Marathi Sahitya Sammelan is anual gathering and people from across Maharashtra come to attend the same ,so it would be a good opportunity to reach out to right people at the right time, for growth of Wiki activities.

Yes,
Unfortunately that is true. Since our meeting I have added some information in a couple of articles but never edited any. My friend and senior journalist Dnyanada Deshpande (she was features editor with IBN Lokmat) would like to attend tomorrow's meeting. I will have to attend a programme on ICT for rural development in Mumbai University.
Dnyanada is an active member of Marathi Granthalaya in Thane and I am sure she will be able to connect you with the organisers of Sahitya Sammelan.
I have written an article about Jimmy Wale's talk in Mumbai and Wikipedia movement in the forthcoming issue of Maharashtra Maza weekly. I hope it will create greater awareness about the importance of this subject.
Marking a copy of this mail to Dnyanada so that you can get touch with her.

Dear Vijay,
When is the Marathi Sahitya Sammelan? I saw this link online - http://www.mynews.in/News/Thane_offers_to_host_84th_Marathi_Sahitya_Sammela…
Also: how can we get in touch with the Mumbai Marathi Granthalaya community?
Anay can hopefully help, but I am not sure he edits on wikipedia.
I can also try and mobilize some Mumbai-based wikipedians who edit in Marathi eg Suyog Vyavahare (who is interested in wiki advocacy) or Utkarshraj Atmaram or contact others through them. They can do the volunteering with the Marathi Granthalaya community for starts.
Let me know next steps and I will try to help for sure.

Dear Mr.Anay
Ms.Bishakha forwarded your mail to mr-wiki yahoo group and I got to know about you. Presently we do not have known active wikipedians at Thane so in past few days I have been sending emails here and there that some one represents/initiates Marathi Wikipedia in some formal/informal way at मराठी साहित्य संमेलन
Besides we need some volunteering to introduce Marathi Wikipedia concept to "Mumbai Marathi Granthalay " reader community.
I am making this request to you since you are based a Mumbai
