Hello Hyderabad,

Sorry for the short notice on this one. Few invites & requests:

a) I am traveling to Hyderabad on work and thought it would be really sweet to catch up for tea/coffee or dinner on Friday March 16th. Maybe we could have a community meet-up to celebrate Telugu's 50k articles! (We are trying to fix up a venue; I will tell those interested asap.)

b) I'm combining my trip with an outreach session at ISB Hyderabad on Saturday March 17th at the ISB Campus. The initial plan was to have a general intro to Wikipedia but they have agreed to have a wiki workshop instead. They have specifically told me that there is interest in both Indic and English language. If anyone's interested, would love your help! The page is here.

c) Also, if there is anyone who is interested in conducting outreach sessions but isn't sure how it's done, do join me for the ISB session. The team has been working really hard at improving outreach effectiveness and I'd love to give you a sense of what it looks like.

d) Lastly, if you know anyone else who might be interested in attending the wiki workshop as a newbie , I will try and work something out.

If you're interested in either the meet up on Friday evening or getting you or your friends to the session on Saturday morning, would you drop me a line offlist (hisham@wikimedia.org)

Best
