Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] Noteworthy Wikimedian Recognition
To: "Discussion list on Indian language projects of Wikimedia." <
wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Dear Wikimedians,
The traction for Wikimedia projects and content in Indian languages (and
Indian content in English) has been growing over the last decade thanks to
the passion and tireless contributions of several Wikimedians. We are
getting set for WikiConference India 2011 which is around the corner. The
Wikimedia Chapter Executive Committee (EC) and the Conference organising
team thought it is appropriate to recognize the most noteworthy
contributors to Indian language projects and Indian content in English
during the conference.
Arun Ramarathnam and Naveen Francis from the EC are leading this
initiative. The process for the recognition has been prepared and a well
diversified Jury is identified. Details of the process and the Jury are
enclosed for your perusal.
I would like to appeal to all of you to spare few minutes to think of
fellow wikimedians who made a significant difference over the first decade
of Wikimedia movement and nominate them for the recognition.
Further communication on the wiki based nomination form would follow from
the Jury. Please spread this communication across other relevant lists and
participate enthusiastically and help make this initiative, the first
collective effort to appreciate stellar contributions from the community a
success.
Cheers
Arjuna Rao Chavala
President, Wikimedia India

Noteworthy Wikimedian Recognition
The Recognition
Wikimedia projects have been active in India for a few years and the
journey has been exciting (Wikimedia Chapter First Annual
report<http://wiki.wikimedia.in/File:WMIN-AnnualReport2010-11.pdf>,
Gautam John's article<http://gkjohn.posterous.com/thoughts-on-wikipedia-in-india>and
Wikimedia
Foundation article<http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_India_Chronicles_%28150dpi%29.pdf>).
This has been made possible by the contributions of hundreds of Wikimedians
across various Wikimedia projects. WikiConference India 2011 is the first
conference and largest congregation of Wikimedians in India across
Wikimedia projects. The Wikimedia India chapter Executive committee
believes it would be befitting to use this opportunity to recognize
noteworthy contributions of some of the best contributors to our projects.
The objective of this recognition is to appreciate Wikimedians
(contributing to India focused projects) from across Wikimedia projects and
languages for their contributions.
The nomination process
- Any Wikimedian can nominate any other wikimedian of their choice for
the recognition (preferred). Self nominations are also allowed.
- Nominees for the Recognition should have made significant
contributions to Wikimedia India projects or the movement. Contributions
include content, Outreach and contributions in any other form.
- Nominations should be through a filled Nomination form on the Wikimedia
India wiki <http://wiki.wikimedia.in/>.
- Incomplete nominations will not be considered.
- The jury's decision would be final.
Eligibility Criterion
Any wikimedian other than current Members of the Wikimedia India Executive
committee, members of the Jury, Wiki Conference India Office bearers,
staff/contractors of the Wikimedia foundation or anyone paid directly for
their time/effort by Wikimedia organisations are eligible for these
recognitions.

**Please Cross Post this on your Country List. This has been Cross Posted

once**
Hiya,
We are please to announce that WMF has granted a few scholarships (maximum
of 5) for persons outside of India to attend WikiConference India 2011 (WCI
2011 - http://meta.wikimedia.org/**wiki/WikiConference_India_2011<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2011>
**). WCI 2011 will take place in Mumbai, India between 18-20 November 2011.
WCI 2011 is the first conference of its kind being held in India and is
intended to become an annual national flagship event for Wikipedia/Wikimedia
in the country. It is meant to provide a common platform for all Indian
Wikimedians to meet and share their views, discuss challenges and exchange
useful tips, best practices and other information.
Anyone residing outside of India is eligible to apply, but since this is an
India specific conference they would need to demonstrate how by being
present at the conference they can help the movement in India or improvement
of indic languages. It is also necessary that those receiving the
scholarship present something at WCI 2011.
The scholarships will cover Travel to and Fro Mumbai (economy),
Accommodation (similar to what is being offered to Indian Scholars) and Visa
fees (if you need one).
Please do make your application as strong as possible given that there are
few scholarships and we expect a huge number of applications:
