Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] India Programs-Monthly IRC: Welcoming Nitika &
Shiju - Thursday August 25th @ 9pm IST (#wikimedia-office)
To: Wikimedia India Community list <wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hi Folks
As I mentioned earlier, we're scheduling the Monthly IRC of India Programs
tomorrow (Thursday August 25th) at 9pm IST. This will be on the
#wikimedia-office channel. (For those who are not familiar with IRC, it is
an Internet messaging system similar to a regular chat room. It's very
simple to use and you can join in by clicking on the following link:
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#wikimedia-office)
The main agenda items are to give an update on India Programs - and also for
Nitika and Shiju to introduce themselves, and for you to get to know them
better. For those who missed the earlier mail exchanges on this, Nitika
Tandon and Shiju Alex have joined the Wikimedia Foundation's team in India.
(Nitika has already started and Shiju will be starting shortly.) I'm
really excited about the additions to the team and I invite you to come join
us tomorrow night to welcome them aboard!
Hope to see many, many of you tomorrow.
Best

Dear All,
Below one news about Bengali Wikipedia in Today's Telegraph
http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110717/jsp/calcutta/story_14249545.jsp
*Now you can log on to Wikipedia for help on your Bengali assignments as
well. **Adda or **jonaki, Rabindranath or **nesha, you can find a range of
subjects in the Bengali Wiki.*
* *
*“The Bengali Wikipedia was launched in January 2004. At present Wikipedia
is available in 273 languages, out of which 20 are Indian. Bengali was the
third Indian language in which Wikipedia was made available,” says Jayanta
Nath, administrator of the Bengali Wikipedia. The archive boasts of both
English articles translated into Bengali as well as articles written by the
team just for the Bengali archives. To access Wikipedia in Bengali, the user
has to type “bn.” instead of “en.” before Wikipedia in the address bar. *
* *
*Because it is not just translation and has its own group working on the
content, the Bengali Wikipedia has an independent character and identity.
But while the English Wikipedia has 3.6 million articles, the Bengali site
has only 22,000 articles. “Our strengths are famous personalities from
Bengal, Bengali literature and Hindu religion,” says Nath. The user base is
also considerably lower compared with the original English online
encyclopaedia — 0.1 million against 1,000 million. “There are about 150
active contributors to the site from places like Bangladesh, West Bengal,
the US, UAE and other places,” says Nath. *
* *
*The users are not always impressed. “I have checked out the Bengali
Wikipedia. I find the articles in English more detailed. Plus, Bengali
Wikipedia follows a very bookish Bengali, not the way we speak it. It is
difficult to follow,” says Saikat Bhattacharya. *
* *
*An entry on **Chokh (eye) in Bengali Wikipedia reads: “**Chokh pranir
alok-songbedonsheel anga o darshanendriya. (The eye is a living being’s
photo-sensitive component and visual organ.)”*

Hi Belayet,
I greatly appreciate that you have started a discussion about the MoA.
For your information, the memorandum is not final until we get the
final approval. The “Done” means we are done with submitting the draft
MoA. But we can change in case of any concerning issues raised by
ChapCom or the community.
Of course, anyone can ask for a change to the MoA. So, please feel
free to propose any changes here. But please be specific about the
justification and benefits of the requested change.
And it's very much appreciated that the persons you mentioned in your
mail care about community, not position/titles. We have twenty
sections in the proposed MoA to check and review, which all can review
for the community.

*Nasir Khan Saikat <http://profiles.google.com/nasir8891>*
I worked for the formation of Wikimedia Bangladesh chapters for several
years. Several times I call people to discuss and participate at the chapter
formation process. But this time I wonder there is no discussion about the
chapter setup committee as well the draft memorandum at the mailing list or
at Wikis or at any meetups.
Without any previous discussion with the community and any open call for
participation that committee has been formed and announced. Also the
proposed memorandum that submitted to the chapter committee without any
consent of previously who are involved with the chapter formation process.
Though I am active in my Wikimedia activities, without informing me, my name
have been erased from the Chapter page at the Meta page. And no one from the
self declared Chapter setup committee has contact me on this issue. There is
no meetups or online meeting has been called publicly to discussion about
this issue. Without knowing people they discussed the issue among themselves
and declare the committee and the memorandum at mailing list.
I'd like to request the people who are involved with that tasks, Please be
transparent with this process. Call the community to involve and discuss
with them. Don't be a part of any collusion without informing people who are
worked for and involved with this initiatives for several years. Wikimedia
Bangladesh must be a community driven organization, should not be a personal
asset.

Belayet

Knowledge is universal

If not now, when?
Dear Wikipedians,
I am very pleased to announce our initiative to create an official
Bangladesh chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation, named Wikimedia
Bangladesh. Maybe many of you already know: currently the existence of
this chapter is unofficial, but we believe it is time to get an
official identity to promote free knowledge all over Bangladesh more
efficiently. We have already formed a small work-group to work in this
process [1].
Wikimedia Bangladesh will be a non-profit organisation devoted towards
promoting Wikipedia and related projects and creating public awareness
in Bangladesh.
To kick-start the process, we have contacted the Chapters Committee
[2] of the Wikimedia Foundation. We also updated our chapter page [3]
on Meta-Wiki [4]. We have also submitted the draft of our Memorandum
of Association [5]. Currently the creation of this chapter is under
active consideration by the Chapters Committee.
We invite Bangladeshi wikipedians to support the Wikimedia Bangladesh
chapter and review the official memorandum of understanding. Please
reply in this thread and provide your invaluable feedback.
With regards,
Ragib Hasan
