Exactly my point, this fellow claimed to be the 'official spokesperson' for ALL of us and our activities and the head of the Chapter as well. Strangely, we have no clue, where he came from, or who he is.

Srikanth,
A clarification: the person you're referring to, is not a Tamil Wikipedian as such (no edits). He might've claimed so.

Times of India consists ONLY of experts at misquoting us Wikipedians and flicking out work from the Commons. :D Ask user PlaneMad about it, he'll give you more info. Though a while back, there was this guy from the Tamil Wiki who apparently, was the head of the to be formed India chapter.. :D Regards,

Great meeting all. The TOI report, unfortunately, misquotes both me and Achal. Last para particularly badly mangled.
And of course the melodramatic headline "Wikipedia cries" could do with some NPOV.:)
