Hoi,
The Dutch Wikipedia is currently the number 10 in traffic. With only som 20 million people speaking the language there is plenty of scope for Indian languages to do better. Wishing them to do better makes no difference.

So here are a few things that will make a difference:

• Make sure that the Indian chapter has money to spend. Make sure that Jimmy's message is localised and that the messages at translatewiki.net that deal with the donations are localised (Hindi is at 0% Malayalam at 100%)
• Make sure that the localisation for your language is complete and up to date. This represents a vast improvement in usability
• Make sure that the public finds the articles they are looking for.\
• Learn why the Indonesian Wikipedia has a much easier ride.. Fix the language technology issues.
• Have a plan on how your community will prioritise the things that need doing
• Be happy with any and all improvements and let it be known.. A positive happy atmosphere in itself makes it easier to have fun while realising objectives (ie doing the work)

Having money helps, making sure that the Fundraiser does an optimal job needs to be done now. It also shows the WMF organisation that "you" are to be taken seriously.
Thanks,

The "Donate Interface" and the "Payflow Pro Gateway" extensions may be looking for your localisations..
