Hello friends,
This is a link I recommend you to bookmark.
http://wiki.wikimedia.in/Geographical_distribution_of_Indian_Wikipedians
This list is useful for outreach & also whenever someone needs Wiki-Help in
a particular city. It would be great if Wikipedians could update this
list.:)
We have the following completely unrepresented states/UTs:
* Andaman & Nicobar Islands
* Arunachal Pradesh
* Assam
* Chandigarh
* Chhattisgarh
* Dadra, Nagar & Haveli
* Daman & Diu
* Goa
* Himachal Pradesh
* Jammu & Kashmir
* Jharkhand (AngPradesh is in Mumbai)
* Lakshadweep
* Manipur
* Meghalaya
* Mizoram
* Puducherry
* Punjab (oye, ye ki hoya!)
* Nagaland
* Uttar Pradesh
* Uttarakhand
Okay, all you admins, please update your status (Mikey my boy, that means
you too)!
Abroad, we dont have Indic Wikipedians listed for:
* Africa
* Australia
* Asia (other than India)
* Middle East
* North America
* South America
Unless you would like to stay off list, of course that's acceptable too.
May I also request Tinu / list admins to please forward it all the Indic
language & city Wikimedia lists. We need this resource to be as
comprehensible as possible.
Warm regards,
Ashwin Baindur

FUEL GILT Conference is one of the largest events of FOSS language
technology - Its challenges, solutions, best practices and its conventions.
Due to some unavoidable reasons, we are a bit late in announcing CFP. We
apologize for the same. We are late, but this time we have grand plan to
celebrate the presence of our languages on new technology platform.
Yes, we have a grand plan! Total three days for the event : 20,21 and 22
Nov 2015. So, save these dates on your calender! The host for the event
and venue is - Tamil Virtual Academy (Erstwhile Tamil Virtual University),
Anna University Campus, Gandhi Mandapam Road, Kottur, Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
Thank you TVA.
We are happy that, this time Mozilla Localisation Hackathon is being

Conference on 20th Nov and Mozilla l10n Hackthon on 21-22 Nov.However, the
localization hackathon is open to the invited members only. If you are one

FUEL is growing only because of the support of volunteer communities
world-wide and several well known organizations! The power of the event is
the power of collaboration, the power of sharing, the power of
volunteerism! Currently, More than 60 language communities are working with
the FUEL Project. Since 2008, FUEL Project is consistently working with the
different language communities to provide standard linguistic resources eg.
Terminologies, style guides, assessment methods etc. to the world.Like last
year, please collaborate and cooperate to make the event a huge success!

Hi,
WMIN will be applying to receive a grant from the Wikimedia Foundation
through its new Simple Annual Plan Grants program
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Simple> soon.
Until then, we are applying for a grant through its PEG program to support
our ongoing programmatic activities.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:PEG/WM_IN/PEG_Bridge_Funding
I request the Wikimedia Community to take note of this application and
provide your comments in the talk page.
Thanks,
Ravi
Dear all,
Though we added this announcement in our September newsletter, it has
not delivered in most mailing lists. So, I am sharing this again.
CIS-A2K invites applications from Indian and Indic Wikimedians for the
upcoming Global Congress on Intellectual Property and the Public
Interest.[1] The event, happening during December 15-17 in New Delhi, is
the most significant event on the calendar for scholars and policy
advocates working on intellectual property from a public interest
perspective.
The last date of application is 27 October. Indian and Indic Wikipedians
are welcome to apply in the /event page[2]/ to apply.

Oops. Your previous mail quoted me and came as reply to mine. That caused
the confusion.
The chapter has to clarify on the issues which you have raised.

Why are you quoting me?
I asked for a citation. If you / others could provide it from verifiable
Government of India / credible source I am going to improve my knowledge .
I don't think apology is required.
