Hi everyone, On behalf of the Wikimedia India Chapter, I am happy to announce that User:Kvr.lohith from Telugu Wikipedia has been announced as the Featured Wikimedian of the Month for August 2017. His profile is as follows: *K. Venkata Ramana* is one the most active editors from Telugu Wikipedia, under the alias Kvr.lohith <https://te.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B0%B5%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%A1%E0%B1%81%E0%B0%95%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%BF:Kvr.lohith>. Venkata Ramana hails from the Srikakulam District of Andhra Pradesh, and by profession, is a Physical Science Assistant in a government school. Venkata Ramana joined Wikipedia in May 2012, and initially started off editing English Wikipedia. But soon he found his place in Telugu Wikipedia, and has regularly contributing since then. As of August 2017, his global edits count to 77,000. He is also an Administrator on Telugu Wikipedia. Venkata Ramana loves to create biographies and science related articles on Wikipedia. He advocates that it is the duty of every Wikipedian to get familiar with the policies to Wikipedia and give good references to the articles. Apart from his work on articles, Venkata has created many templates that are helpful to many on Telugu Wikipedia. As said by his fellow editor, Pavan Santosh <https://te.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B0%B5%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%A1%E0%B1%81%E0%B0%95%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%BF:Pavan_santhosh.s>, Venkata Ramana is one of the few editors on Telugu Wikipedia striving hard develop the quality rather than the quantity. Apart from Wikipedia, Venkata Ramana's penchant to spread knowledge made him start a blog titled Physical Science Forever <http://physicalscience4ever.blogspot.in/> for school children, which was visited by more than 3,00,000 times till date.
