Great job by folks in Bikaner. I believe it was the Srishti Sethi & Supriya Chaudhary, students from Rajasthan who came to Bangalore and attended both FOSS.in & Bangalore Wikimeetup23http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Bangalore/Bangalore23. Nice to see more woman Wikipedians coming forward. ( This should make Bishakha happy too :) )

Hi Everyone, One more event in India conducted at Engineering College Bikaner. The snaps will be uploaded soon. About 40-50 guys joined it. It was awesome to be there. I travelled about 120 miles for attending the event. It started with the introduction to Open Source. Then a simple introduction to Wikipedia by Sristhi Sethi. Some facts about Wikimedia foundation from Supriya. One another guy ( I don't know his name but that was the best part) asked some questions about Wikimedia Foundation and distributed some goodies. A video message from Jimmy Wales. Editing Tutorial about Wikipedia and Wiki commons by Apurva Tripathi. A discussion about deletion policy of Wikipedia . Then finally a signature campaign. It was great to be there. A new chapter of Wikipedia began at Bikaner. The one more thing I would like to admit that we really missed the T-shirts. Is there any way to ask for T-shirts so they can be distributed to organizers and participants?
