[Sent out this note to some Goa mailing lists. Thinking of an edit-a-thon
here. Can someone help me to get permission for the mass creation of 10-20
accounts and the use of the same from a single IP address? This could
happen in the next 2-3 weeks. --FN]

In addition, the others might also need their profiles to be improved.
If anyone is willing to undertake to help complete any, some or all of these
profiles, I'd be happy to mentor and guide. It's simple to do (but the
Wikipedia, being an encyclopedia, wants all information to be referenced
carefully before it is included).
There are also other profiles of Goa writers (English, Romi, Marathi)
waiting to be completed. At another level, Prof Delfim Correia was searching
for images of Goan authors who wrote in Portuguese. Do you have any? Are you
willing to share?

Dear all ,
I have been working quite some time to scrap data from Digital dictionaries
of South Asia . <http://dsal.uchicago.edu/dictionaries/>
Quite an amount of success has been achieved
<https://github.com/commonssibi/PunjabiLexicon->.The basic idea is simple -
I use a python program using Beautiful soup , scrap the data from the site
using a simple crawler and take out the output in a text file which can be
hacked around and output tweeked according to our needs . Though I have
written the program , a lot help has been got from infofarme
<https://ta.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%AE%AA%E0%AE%AF%E0%AE%A9%E0%AE%B0%E0%AF%8…>r
.
This has been written for Punjabi Wiktionay . I can sit down and port it
for all Indiac Languages and the data can be used in Wikitionary .
Suggestions and improvements welcomed .

Hi,
Tamil Development and Information Department of Government of Tamil Nadu
has issued a Government Order (Number: 105, Date: 01. 07. 2016) to Tamil
University, Thanjavur and all other government departments and institutions
to release all their publications, archives and collections under Creative
Commons by Share-Alike license.
This Government Order has got the approval from the TN Government's Legal
Department and issued by the order of Governor of Tamil Nadu. The order can
be seen here
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:GoTN_Tamil_Development_Departments_…>.
We have asked for a copy of this order in English.
This order comes as part of the public policy initiatives undertaken
through the collaboration between Global Tamil Wikimedia Community and
Tamil Virtual Academy <https://ta.wikipedia.org/s/4o7x> (TVA).
The community recognizes this as a significant milestone in spreading free
knowledge for the benefit of Tamils. We also hope that this sets a good
precedent for all government institutions across the country. We thank the
Government of Tamil Nadu, former director of TVA Mr. T. Udhayachandran I.
A. S., and Assistant Director of TVA Mr. Thamizhpparithi Maari who played a
key role in getting this order issued.

Dear All,
As you all remain aware the world's biggest sporting event 'The Olympics'
is set to knock the door, this August. At present, 111 athletes from India
have qualified, the largest ever contingent. More than 311 National
Coaching Camps have been held across India as a part of their
pre-tournament preparation. To celebrate this sporting festival we at
Wikimedia India have decided to promote a virtual-edit-a-ton.
During the primary research, It was observed that a lot many areas on
Indian Sports and 'India at Olympics' for which no article exist. Even if
they do, there presence on Indian languages remain negligible. Considering
this event would be in progression soon, we have decided to promote this
activity. A draft note could be found here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMIN/Events/India_At_Rio_Olympics_2016_Edit…>
although this is still in the development stage.
While working on Olympics we have made attempts to promote virtual
edit-a-ton on a different theme altogether, we also decided to make the
awards different. For every 15 good articles created by an editor,
Wikimedia India would be planting trees on their behalf in their name
symbolising '*Wikipedia* *India Supports India at Olympics, tree planted by
Wikipedian......*'. Considering tree plantation involves significant time
and human labour, we have partnered with a tree plantation organisation
SankalpTaru <https://www.sankalptaru.org/>. They would be our sponsors for
this event. Pomegranate trees in Barmer, Thar Desert Rajasthan would be
planted. These trees will be planted on a rural farmer's land who would
further nurture these trees under the supervision of SankalpTaru. Once the
harvest starts, the local inhabitants would start earning livelihood by
selling fruits (based on the consent of Wikipedia who is awarded the
respective tree). A virtual forest could also be monitored online here.
<http://www.sankalptaru.org/c/642> This is a novel idea of English
Wikipedian Mr. Rudra Pratap Sinha (User:JimCarter)
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jim_Carter>. Wikimedia India is
further bringing this this idea into practice, more information here </>.
Besides this, we are happy to inform, Niyogi
<http://www.niyogibooksindia.com/> Books has decided to sponsor the
biography of Mr. Prakash Padukone, 'Prakash Padukone Story' <http:///>and
Sir Sunil Gavaskar, 'Cricket's Little Master'
<http://www.niyogibooksindia.com/showcase/259/>. Every participants who
completes 15 good articles would also be awarded a book.
We plan to roll out this event between 29th July, 2016 and 25th August,
2016. In the meantime we request you all to please provide suggestions on
how to make this event effective.
*Disclaimer : This event is totally a zero-budget exercise.*
Thanks

Dear friends,
We are happy to share the newsletter for July. This includes updates from the work we are associated with, and updates about the Rio Olympics edit-a-thon that is being organised by our friends from Wikimedia India.
Open source effort gives indigenous language an official typeface
Santali, an aboriginal South Asian language, has a brand new freely licensed font and set of cross-platform open source input tools on the way. The typeface family was designed by type designer Pooja Saxena (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Anexasajoop) and went through several rounds of review by language experts. However, the typeface (https://github.com/anexasajoop/olchiki-fontfamily) is still one step away from reality. Because of this, two input methods (https://github.com/GuruGomke/ol-chiki) will be made available along with the typeface; Sarjom Baha (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector/Inp…) , a phonetic input method so that every common user can easily type the they pronounce the words, and InScript (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ol_Chiki_InScript_keyboard_layout.s…) , a keyboard layout standard for Indian scripts. Even though the original plan was to create a editor community to contribute to
the Santali Wikipedia (https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/sat/Main_Page) and bring it live from Incubator, outputs will just be distributed for the users to use them.
Update: The input methods (https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime/tree/master/rules/sat) are now up on all the Wikimedia projects as part of the Universal Language Selector (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Universal_Language_Selector) .
. . . Check the blog (http://cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/opensource.com-subhashish-panigrahi-july-8-2…) and the project page for more details of the Ol chiki project.

Wikimedia India is Planning & arranging meetings with Government
bodies,Institutions & various Media outlets when she visits New Delhi after
attending WikiConference India 2016

*Featured Wikimedian of the month*
*Featured Wikimedian for July*
Raju Suthar is one of the most active Wikipedians on the Hindi Wikipedia.
He started editing in January 2015 & with help from senior Hindi
wikipedians, within 2 months he reached an edit count of 3,000.Currently he
has an edit count of 6,500+ with almost 750 articles created to his name.
The real story behind this truly inspiring Wikipedian lies in his humble
background. Rarely having any access to a laptop, almost all of his edits
have been done through a mobile phone ([
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_s5610-4191.php Samsung Galaxy S5610]).
Editing on his phone whenever he gets time,raju while sharing his
experience has confessed that editing through a mobile phone was very
difficult, due to which he regrets that the contributions which he has made
to Wikipedia is not enough and wants to do more for the community & his
language. With Hindi having one of the lowest Editors per million speakers,
Raju says that Hindi Wikipedia is not growing as fast as some of the other
Indic Languages, due to which his primary aim is to see that the community
grows to its full Potential. He likes writing articles on Topics related to
Cricket, his home state of Rajasthan & its history.
