Hi Wikipedians, The first community newsletter from the Wikimedia India community was released in September 2010. Since that time, various community members have been involved with creating a regular version of the newsletter; today, we are pleased to announce the commencement of WikiPatrika, a monthly newsletter of Wikimedia community, chapter and foundation updates from India. 'Patrika' is the closest pan-Indian word that has roughly similar meaning across the country that also conveys the right spirit; it has a multitude of meanings, but is broadly understood to mean 'journal' or 'magazine'. WikiPatrika is an independent publication which is not affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation or the Wikimedia India chapter. We sincerely thank the Wikimedia India chapter for allowing us to host this newsletter on wikimedia.in .

Thanks all for the kind appreciation. This was definitely team work from lots of people http://wiki.wikimedia.in/WikiPatrika/2011-06/Credits We are still building our infrastructure for Wikipatrika similar to En.Wikipedia Signpost , which will help seamless production of Wikipatrika, month after month. For that we need more volunteers, so if are interested in helping any way, feel free write to us at wikimedia-in-newsletter-editors(a)lists.wikimedia.org This is only the first edition of Wikipatrika and can be only be improved by your suggestions and criticisms. There are definitely lot of things that can be improved upon. Regards Tinu Cherian On Thu, Jun 9, 2011 at 10:39 AM, Bishakha Datta <bishakhadatta(a)gmail.com>wrote;wrote:

Awesome work. If you haven't tipped the Signpost that you've done this, you should. The Signpost editors would love it, and I'm sure would be happy to help if they haven't already. :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/Newsroom/Suggesti… -- Steven Walling Fellow at Wikimedia Foundation wikimediafoundation.org _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
