The very first email in this thread by Ravi had two
main queries –one was
about Tulu Wikipedia workshop and another one about Christ University
project. I have answered both of them. Since both questions were asked in
the same email, I answered both of them in same reply mail. Vikram also
answered about the Christ University project. Complete report of CIS-A2K
activities and outcome is available on meta and I am sure all the people who
have been active in this thread have thoroughly gone through them. I don’t
think we will be gaining anything more by doing further hair-splitting on
this.
I am not entirely sure that the above is a correct summary of things.
If <http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimediaindia-l/2014-May/011351.html>
is the first email on the thread (from Ravishankar), then the points
raised were:
[+] Section 1.3 of
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2013-10-02/News_and_notes>
provides a set of observations in the form of "Lessons Learned"
[+] Ravishankar's point is that although the lessons were recorded,
there are more instances where similar has occurred and lessons have
not been implemented. To quote from that email "Yet, CIS seems to be
repeating sich negligible impact outreach programs many times in March
and April 2014. This includes Tulu workshops where there is active
editor community at all."
I am not sure whether than phrase "Tulu workshops where there is
active editor community at all" was meant to read as "no active editor
community at all". Since no clarification or, amendments were
provided, that line is kept dangling - but the reference to Tulu does
not obvious ask for stats.
[+] The mail thereafter goes to cite
<http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaKN.htm> which is a more
broad update of the status/stats for Kannada and positions this in
contrast to a news article
<http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-karnataka/wikipedia-taps-students-for-kannada-content/article5824580.ece>.
The objective for the comparison is to provide data for the assertion
that "when you look at Kannada Wikipedia stats, the user activity has
returned to pre-education programme levels within a month".
In short, the original email, if that is the first on this thread,
neither asked about Tulu and nor did it ask about the Christ
University project.
