મિત્રો,
વિકિસ્રોત પર સહકાર્ય પરિયોજના - "સૌરાષ્ટ્રની રસધાર - ૨" ની ભૂલશુદ્ધિનું કાર્ય પૂર્ણ થયું છે. આ સાથે પરિયોજના ક્રમાંક ૬૨ હેઠળ ગોવર્ધનરામ ત્રિપાઠીના લિખિત નવલકથા "સરસ્વતીચંદ્ર ભાગ ૧"ને સ્રોત પર ચડાવવાનું કાર્ય હાથમાં લઈએ છીએ.
ચાર ભાગમાં વહેંચાયેલી આ નવલકથા ઘણી પ્રચલીત બની છે. તેને આધારે ફિલ્મ તથા ટીવી ધારાવાહિક પણ બની છે.
ગુજરાતી ભાષાની આ અવિસ્મરણીય કૃતિને સ્રોત પર ચઢાવવાના કાર્યમાં જોડાવા માટે આપ નીચેની કડી પર જઈ વધુ માહિતી મેળવી શકશો.

Dear all,
CIS-A2K would like to share with you the newsletter for the month of
July 2015. We look forward to hearing any feedback or input you might have.
The Goan Konkani Wikipedia (available at gom.wikipedia.org) has gone
live after spending nine long years in incubation.
Konkani Wikipedia has many heroes, Melissa Simoes and Darshan Kandolkar
are two of the many long-term contributors who joined Konkani Wikipedia
during the Konkani Wikipedia @ Goa University program and are still
active even after the program was formally concluded. Darshan is an
Assistant Professor at the Government College Pernem in Goa. His
professor at Goa University, Dr. Madhavi Sardesai—who passed away last
year—played a vital role in inspiring him to pursue higher studies in
Konkani. Darshan realized that there is a lot to be written in Konkani
when he was introduced to Wikipedia, and after that, he became dedicated
towards contributing to the project.
The Konkani Wikimedia community has been using social media actively to
promote the Konkani Wikipedia project, and to celebrate the successes of
its contributors. After Melissa became the top contributor to the
project, her fellow editor Luis Gomes congratulated her. That brought
Melissa into the spotlight, gaining the attention of editors from the
global Wikimedia community. The community is continuing a tradition to
rewarding the most prolific contributor of each month as the "Wikipedian
of the Month".

*WikiConference India 2016* (WCI 2016) is an outcome of Indic Meetup held
during Wikimania 2015
<https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Meetup>. We had a
collective dream to bid for *Wikimania 2019* on behalf of India. If we need
to run a Wikimania successfully, it is time that the Wikimedia community in
India reboots itself and works together towards that. Conducting a
WikiConference India first will be a good start towards achieving that
goal. This will help us assess our strengths and plan accordingly for
Wikimania 2019. This is our bet to prove our unity in diversity.
