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

Hello Wikipedians,
The WLB team have been working on a project named *Wiki Loves Butterfly* (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Butterfly) for almost six
months now. Earlier also I posted on mailing lists and village pumps I'd
request your kind support and suggestions:

Hi,
During WikiConference India 2016, the chapter and user-group
representatives from South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation
(SAARC) held a short meeting on 6th August evening.
One of the outcomes of the meetings was to create a SAARC mailing list.
SAARC mailing is the first attempt for SAARC Wikimedians to come on a
common platform for discussions and doing programs together.
The interested Indian community members may subscribe to the mailing list.

Thanks

Sure. That would be great. We would love to have a virtual edit-a-thon.
To be honest, I'd also like to use the interest in local interest to build
up wider interest here in contributing to the Wikipedia as a whole.
The next local gaps waiting to be filled (as far as we here are concerned)
include:
* Educational institutions in Goa
* Konkan Railway stations in Maharashtra, Goa and Karnataka
Regards, Frederick.
