Dear all,

I hope you are doing well. Glad to announce that CIS-A2K is going to conduct an event, Indic Wiki improve-a-thon 2022, for the Indic language. It will run from 15 December to 5 January 2023. It will be an online activity however if communities want to organise any on-ground activity under Improve-a-thon that would also be welcome. The event has its own theme Azadi Ka Mahatosav which is based on a celebration of the 75th anniversary of Indian Independence. The event will be for 20 days only.

This is an effort to work on content enrichment and improvement jointly online and offline. We encourage the communities to plan a short activity under this event and work on the content on your local Wikis. The event is not restricted to a project, anyone can edit any project by following the theme. The event page link is here https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Indic_Wiki_Improve-a-thon_2022. The list is under preparation and will be updated soon. The community can also prepare their list for this improve-a-thon.

'''Note''': There will be a pre-event call on Saturday. During the call, we can discuss the idea of the event, how communities and individuals can participate, FAQ etc.
