Hi Indian Wikisource Community,
As COVID-19 has forced the Wikimedia communities to stay at home and like
many other affiliates, CIS-A2K has decided to suspend all offline
activities till 15th September 2020 (or till further notice).I present to
you for an online training session for future coming months
1. Wikisource Skill Share,[1] a capacity-building initiative, where Indic
Wikisource contributors, both newcomers and experienced, can share
knowledge and skills with each other and clear confusions. Most of the
time, it will be done online on 1:1 basis, so it is just the right time to
participate there if you have not planned to do it or done it already.
Let's learn Wikisource together! I would like to invite experienced Indic
Wikisource contributors and sign your name at Willing to respond section
[2]. Newcomer or any Indic Wikisource contributors are welcome to join the
session with your queries and doubts.
2. Intensive Personalized Training (or IPT),[3] this also a
capacity-building initiative, where Indic Wikisource contributors,
especially newcomers could come with his/her queries and doubts. I, myself
will share my knowledge and skills with each contributor and clear
confusions. It will be done online on a 1:1 basis, so it is just the right
time to participate there if you have not planned to do so.
3. Online Proofread-edithon for all 12 Indic Wikisource language projects.
We are planning for an indic level online proofreadthon from 1 May 2020 to
10 May 2020. The book of the subject will be the classical literature of
your languages. We’ll share details about this in a separate email in a
couple of days.

new as well as experienced users. You are requested to fill up this form

Dear Wikimedians,
Firstly I wish you all a very happy Rongali bihu/Poila
baisakh/Baisakhi/Vishu in spite of the gloomy times. Today we are bringing
out a pdf booklet containing the writings by Assamese Wikimedians about
their experiences and expectations of Assamese Wikimedia projects. All
these writings were published every now and then in our monthly newsletter
Wikipatrika from 2015 to 2020. Kindly go through it and point out any
deficiencies or scopes for improvement. Thank you.

Hello,
There is news about Wikimedia Foundation moving to Wikipedia Foundation ?
Can someone update what's the current status and what are the views of
Indians ? I am personally interested in knowing more. I don't support this
Brand change but I think I do not have all knowledge. What will happen to
India and what do Indians feel about this ?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm not a new user, lost my older account. I was active on WP couple of
years back.
While reading an article I found that few articles about violate WP:NPOV
(such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Chinese_Indians ).
This is not a discussion about one or two articles. The aggressive
adjectives and phrases should be changed. I have made a few changes to the
article, please see the history. I have also posted this on the
article-talk page, but, I believed that many Indian (or people who know the
context) users are not active on those articles. Where can I find people
who write on *Indian History* or people who monitor *WP:NPOV* and
*WP:Civility?*
Regards,
Methu
