Hi,
Anirudh & Noopur, Its awesome that this is taking place and soon we all
hope to have lots of Ahmedabad images.
A small lesson learnt from the Kolkata photothon - Please upload all your
images with sensible names such WTA_Collectors_Residence,jpg rather than
Ahmedabad_PT034.jpg.
I recommend that this point be disseminated to all participants before they
upload images. Please do create a Commons category which they should upload
to such as [[Category:Ahmedabad Photothon 2012]] or whatever you like which
should be nested in category [[Category:Wikipedian_meetups_in_Ahmedabad]].
Warm regards,
Ashwin Baindur

Hi all,
Sending in an update from the Ahmedabad community: The Wikipedia Takes
Ahmedabad photowalk is scheduled for Tuesday, 3 January 2012. As of now,
we have received confirmation from 162 individuals on facebook itself! We
saw a surge in interest from amateur and professional photographers in
Ahmedabad after the Times of India and the Mirror covered our story
yesterday. 93.5 RED FM played our pre-recorded interviews this morning.
Noopur has created a short-guide on the fly for uploading pictures on to
the Wikimedia Commons:

Due to the sudden increase in the number of interested participants, we
have decided to hold a pre-event meeting with group co-ordinators tomorrow,
29 December 2011.

Dear all,
I take great pride and joy in announcing Wikipedia takes Ahmedabad on
January 3, 2012. As a great start to the event, we had a new volunteer join
us and make our logo. He is very excited to have discovered Commons and has
offered his help for all events in future. We are coordinating it thru FB
group and event page and details are listed on Wiki here:

You can join and invite your friends here:
