Dear All, On behalf the Gujarati community, I wanted to share a nice update. On 22nd April, Gujarati Wikisource reached a major milestone with the completion of "સત્યના પ્રયોગો અથવા આત્મકથા" (Saty Naa Prayogo Athavaa Aatmakathaa) It is the Autobiography of Mahatma Gandhi (The story of my experiments with truth). This book has 454 pages in 169 chapters in 5 sections.
The work to digitize this book was started less than 1 month before.
The following Gujarati wiki librarians contributed to this project.
- સુશાંત સાવલા (Sushant Savla)
- ધવલ વ્યાસ (Dhaval Vyas)
- vyom25 (Vyom)
- સતિષ પટેલ (Satish Chandra)
- જેઠાભાઇ ઓડેદરા (Jethabhai Odedara)
- અશોક મોઢવાડીયા (Ashok Modhavadia - Captain)
- jaishree
- Roopal Mehta
- સંજય બાલોતિયા (Sanjay Balotia)
- જીતેન્દ્રસિંહ (Jinedrasinh)
- નિલેશ બંધીયા (Nilesha Bandhia)
- Findjigar
- દેવેન્દ્રસિંહ ગોહિલ (Devendrasinh Gohil)
To me, this is actually the biggest part of this story! 13 wikilibrariansfrom all over the world collaborated on this! That is amazing for a relatively new community.
I would like to acknowledge the contributions of Ashok Modhavadia from Junagadh for managing the project, and for Sushant Savla and Dhaval Vyas for being inspirations behind it. Incidentally, Ashok managed the scanning of all the pages, the allotment of chapters, and all other aspects of project management.

Digitization of the next book will be managed by Vyom.
There is an lovely quote I will close this mail with: આજ આનંદ મારા આંગણે રે લોલ! (Aaj aanand maara aangane re lol!) which means "Today is a joyous day for us!" Congratulations to the Gujarati community.
Wishing Gujarati wiki community all the best.
Warmest Regards,
Shiju Alex

Thanks Ashwin, Not only this book, but the other one that is completed and the one underway, are all proof read against original. These are all manually typed and not OCR'd. Thanks to the lack of available OCR Tool/software for indic scripts. If you or anybody else here is aware of good and reliable tool for Indic, especially Gujarati, script please share. That will help us upload book in remarkably less time than it has taken. Best, Dhaval

Hi Dhaval,
No doubt a great achievement and my very sincere congratulations. I just wanted a clarification. This is very important! Have you checked each word for correctness against the original text? Or is it OCR'd text?
Sincerely
Ashwin
