Hi all,
In reply to above posts i want to make one point clear that I
agreed to create a new chapter in Delhi with Vibhijain but that is just a
proposal and this will be done if we get atleast 20 Participants. Two
options are better than one.As of now we Observed that whole Wikimedia and
Chapter Activities are Concentrated towards South India.New Delhi is one of
the biggest Educational City of India and it should be our Target.But as
most of the Volunteers in India Chapter are from South India so its
difficult for them to communicate and make awareness regarding Wiki culture
in North India Portion.Wikimedia Delhi Chapter will build and unite a
Healthy North Indian Wiki Community.But its doesn't mean that we are
different and our goals are different, its just about to shorten your
way.Whether the new chapter request is approved or not,I assured you all
that we will work Unitedly.
With Regards
Mayur

You are not articulating your position quite well
here. There already is a
national chapter. Sub-national chapters aren't very common.
Can someone else from your supporters speak up? Mayur, are you reading
this? I left a message on your page on hi.wiki about his wikimania bid a
couple of weeks ago.
As I recall vibhi, you also applied for the Grant Advisory committee [1]
along with several other people, either way, I assure you committee seat is
not a criteria for chapter formation.

Well I have placed the chapter request with a lot
of discussion with
Mayur, a member of the Grand Advisory Committee. We have the support of
many hindi wikipedians including two crats, Mayur and Ashish. And we will
soon get the support from more 20 wikipedians. Wikimedia India chapter is
mainly Concentrated toward South Indian Languages, New Chapter in New delhi
will help make a good community in India. Well Tinu, you are right, you
don't need more organisations, but we need. Well, 10-20 people interested
are needed for a chapter, lets see, if we gets them, then only we will
proceed.
