Great jpsh, Noopur. Just for that you get a COOKIE! I second Noopur taking over responsibilities for WikiPatrika and help relieve Tinu from a huge responsibility.
Warm regards,

hi Noopur,
We already have Wikipatrika. Would any student be interested on working on it to help Tinu?

Why are we discussing it on different threads and not doing it then! :) Let's have a press team and let's have a newsletter for the internal communication purpose!

I would like to stress again that what we need first is to interconnect ourselves.
We, at various Indic Wikipedias, are still working very much on our own home islands!
Images, references, PR personnel, media - Among various Indic
Wikipedias,
we have a lot that can be shared together.
Beyond the singular difference of native language, our needs, ends and means are mostly same.
[Not to mention that (in.en.wiki*) is automatically a subset of (in.wiki*)]
So,
let us think aloud how to interconnect ourselves more systematically
and
collectively.
Though many may have reservations in using social networking as a
tool, we
at Malayalam Wikipedia have been using Facebook, Blogs, Google
Buzz/Plus/
Docs/Maps/Calendar etc. somewhat effectively to improve and accelerate content and quality of ml.wiki*.
(As an example, see this spreadsheet (Geodesic Coords for ml.wikipedia)<
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&hl=en_US&key=0Akzuf...
,
It has been just created today as an upcoming collaboration tool for GeoTagging our articles in a massive way. We envisage that the same
data
can be later shared with other Wikipedias in some automated way. If
only
we had a larger national network, we could achieve this much faster and wider!!!!!!)
*What if we setup some similar acts for Inter-Indic Wiki friendship circles (Where every in.wiki user can join and share their problems, solutions and ideas)?*

Interestingly this was what you and I spoke about over the phone today. I think this should be of the highest priority. If the chapter and foundation are unable to focus on this it becomes the responsibility of the community aka us, to take forward such an initiative. We shall talk more on this soon Pradeep. What you have said could very well accelerate the growth of the movement in India, organically.

hi,
We must encourage having resouce persons who can help us with
various
things and who are networked. We need multiple people who are
capable
of building the community using these resources.
Specifically, we need more people who can communicate with the
media,
with
social media (I know the sterling job that Tinu does in this area,
but
more
hands, do not hurt), with setting up internet infrastructure, having
more
coders, having more people who are aware of the legal aspects,
having
more
people who are aware of copyright, who are aware of workings in the Government and the Police. Such people may currently exist in each
city
through personal networks currently, but it might help for a growing community like Wikipedia's to have them in multiple places.
I am not sure if this makes sense, but in short, what I mean is
that we
must now, as a community work towards infrastructure building that
will
support the community.
warm regards, Pradeep Mohandas
