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

I think it will be good to have visual editor for tamil wiki source.
How to enable that?

*Wiki Loves Uniformed services (India)* (WLUS) is a public photo
competition on Wikimedia Commons for use on Wikipedia and other project
websites of the Wikimedia Foundation. With the inspiration drawn from Wiki
Loves Monuments (WLM) and Wiki Loves Food (WLF), this is the first
iteration of its kind in 2017. For this year, the predominant aim of the
project is the improve the quality of images of different uniformed
services operating from the Indian sub-continental region.
Apart from the primary goal as mentioned above, the project also aims to
educate people about and promote donating images to Commons on a national
scale from the vibrant Indian photography community. Through this campaign,
more people will access and contribute to Wikipedia and its sister projects.
