Congratulations Assamese Wikipedians!  This is a wonderful achievement.

It's really inspiring to see a small community like the Assamese community starting to discuss and plan community communication / collaboration and outreach events (http://as.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:%E0%A7%B0%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%87%E0%A6%9C%E0%A7%B0_%E0%A6%9A%27%E0%A7%B0%E0%A6%BE_%28%E0%A6%A8%E0%A7%80%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%BF%29#Building_Asaamese_wikipedia_and_Assamese_Wiki_community)  

Request and invite all Assamese community members and all who love Assamese to engage in the above discussion on the village pump.
 
All the very best for your next milestone.  It'll happen much sooner than the earlier ones, I'm so very sure!

Congrats, once again!

Dear All,

Assamese wikipedia has crossed the 1000 article milestone yesterday (2012 January 7). Congrats to all Assamese wikipedians who contributed to this. Started in 2002 June 2, Assamese wikipedia is the first Indic Language wikipedia. Assamese wikipedia will celebrate its 10th Anniversery this year June. 


I remember last year this time Assamese wikipedia was having just 300 articles and just one highly active user. The excellent efforts put forward by some of the senior community members using various social networking sites are helping Assamese wikipedia to grow its community. Now it crossed 1000 article milestone and has more than 10 high active users. Hope community will be able to add more members to its crew this year.
