Hi all, We have all witnessed a lot of community activity in the recent months. Be it outreach activities like meetups, bringing out offline editions, conducting contests, writing bots, creating strategies, and what not, there is currently no single place to find them all. Let's put the wikimedia.in chapter wiki to good use for this purpose. Please add past, current, and proposed projects to the http://wikimedia.in/wiki/Wikimedia_India_project_directory Listing the projects there would also help in finding interested volunteers. If you want to volunteer for Wikimedia India activities, please add yourself to http://wikimedia.in/wiki/Wikimedia_India_contributors so that other contributors can find you.
Of course, as with everything wiki, feel free to improve the layout of the listings. :)

Sundar, Can't say more that we think alike so much. :) I was just setting up another page at the same time .. http://wikimedia.in/wiki/Geographical_distribution_of_Indian_Wikipedians
One of main problems we saw that is that we don't know who is where to contact ..
folks, Please let us know your geograpical area,username and active wikipedias so that we can get in touch with you for a local Wikimeetup or any other Wikimedia event at your city/town. Adding your name in this list is highly optional.

:) Since your page has more info, should we redirect the general contributors' list to that?

just added myself to the list.
A suggestion :- While I was doing that it occurred to me that the site is http:// and not https:// . If nothing else please atleast get cacert certicicate http://www.cacert.org/ and do what is necessary for doing that. Atleast some people like me would be put off by providing 'passwords' in clear-text. Just a thought.
