Dear All,
I hope you're doing well. I am glad to share the links of a short study
just published on the CIS site and Meta-Wiki. This is part of a series of
short-term studies undertaken by the CIS-A2K team. The study is about content
creation on Eastern Punjabi Wikipedia. I am thankful to the interviewees,
also to Sneha for editorial oversight and Sumandro Chattapadhyay for
external review.
I will translate this report into the Punjabi language soon.

Hello,
The Access to Knowledge (A2K) team at CIS has been engaged with work
on research on Indian language Wikimedia projects as part of the APG since
2019. This year, following up on our learnings from work so far, we are
undertaking a needs assessment exercise to understand a) the awareness
about research within Indian language Wikimedia communities, and identify
existing projects if any, and b) to gather community inputs on knowledge
gaps and priority areas of focus and the role of research in addressing the
same.
We would therefore request interested community members to respond to the
needs assessment questionnaire here: https://forms.gle/2xGAUBKSVJTK7Wks9
The deadline to submit your response has been extended till 5 March 2021.
Feel free to write in any language. For any query please write to us at:

1. ਇਸ ਪ੍ਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਦੇ ਉਦਘਾਟਨ ਸਮੇਂ ਅਸਾਫ਼ ਬਾਰਤੋਵ (Asaf Bartov/User:Ijon) ਦੁਆਰਾ ਇੱਕ
ਉਦਘਾਟਨੀ ਗੱਲਬਾਤ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾਵੇਗੀ, ਜਿਸਦਾ ਸਿਰਲੇਖ ਹੈ "*ਭਾਰਤ: ਅਤੀਤ ਅਤੇ ਭਵਿੱਖ*"
("India: Looking back, looking ahead")। ਅਸਾਫ਼ ਸਾਲ 2009 ਤੋਂ ਭਾਰਤ ਵਿੱਚ
ਵਿਕੀਮੀਡੀਆ ਦੇ ਵਿਕਾਸ ਅਤੇ ਯਤਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਆ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ,
ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਵਲੰਟੀਅਰ ਵਜੋਂ, ਅਤੇ ਬਾਅਦ ਵਿੱਚ ਵਿਕੀਮੀਡੀਆ ਫਾਉਂਡੇਸ਼ਨ ਦੇ ਗ੍ਰਾਂਟ
ਪ੍ਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀ ਅਤੇ ਸਮਰੱਥਾ ਨਿਰਮਾਤਾ ਵਜੋਂ। ਇਸ ਗੱਲਬਾਤ ਵਿਚ, ਉਹ ਹੁਣ ਤੱਕ ਦੀ ਆਪਣੀ
ਵਿਕੀਮੀਡੀਆ ਯਾਤਰਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਰਾਹ 'ਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਵਿਚਾਰ ਪੇਸ਼ ਕਰੇਗਾ ਜੋ ਉਸ ਦੇ ਨਜ਼ਰੀਏ ਤੋਂ ਹੈ।
ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਹੇਠਾਂ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਲਿੰਕ ਤੋਂ ਪੂਰੇ ਪ੍ਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਦੇ ਕਾਰਜਕ੍ਰਮ ਨੂੰ ਦੇਖ ਸਕਦੇ ਹੋਂ

ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਭਾਈਚਾਰੇ ਦੇ ਮੈਂਬਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਕੀਮਤੀ ਸਮੇਂ
ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਸਮਾਂ ਕੱਢ ਕੇ ਅਸਾਫ਼ ਦੇ ਇਸ ਸੈਸ਼ਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਜ਼ਰੂਰ ਸ਼ਾਮਿਲ ਹੋਣ ਜੀ। ਇਹ ਸੈਸ਼ਨ ਕੱਲ੍ਹ
5:10 ਤੋਂ 5:40 PM ਤੱਕ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ।
2. ਅਸੀਂ ਕੱਲ੍ਹ participation ਦੀ ਰਜਿਸਟ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਨ ਬੰਦ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਸੀ। ਹਾਲਾਂਕਿ,
ਤਜ਼ਰਬੇਕਾਰ ਵਿਕੀਮੀਡਿਅਨਜ਼ ਲਈ, ਜੋ ਕਿਸੇ ਵੀ ਕਾਰਨ ਕਰਕੇ ਉਹ ਅੰਤਮ ਤਾਰੀਖ ਤੱਕ apply
ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਪਾਏ, ਅਸੀਂ ਆਖਰੀ ਮਿੰਟ 'ਤੇ ਤੁਰੰਤ ਰਜਿਸਟ੍ਰੇਸ਼ਨ ਲਈ ਵਿਕਲਪ ਰੱਖਿਆ ਹੈ। ਵਧੇਰੇ
ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਲਈ, ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਇੱਥੇ ਦੇਖੋ -

3. ਅਸੀਂ ਸਾਰੇ ਚੁਣੇ ਗਏ ਭਾਗੀਦਾਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਵਿਚ ਸ਼ਾਮਲ ਹੋਣ ਲਈ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਵੇਰਵੇ
ਅਤੇ ਲਿੰਕ ਭੇਜ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਹਨ। ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਆਪਣੀ email ਦੇ spam ਫੋਲਡਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਜਾਂਚ ਕਰੋ,
ਜੇ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਸਾਡੀ ਮੇਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਮਿਲੀ। ਕਿਸੇ ਵੀ ਪ੍ਰਸ਼ਨ ਲਈ, ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਸਾਡੇ ਤੱਕ
