[Wikimediaindia-l] [Wikimedia ZA] Oral Citations project: People are Knowledge

[Achal Prabhala]

Hi David, the audio interviews are up on Wikimedia Commons under the 
Oral Citations Project category: 
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Oral_Citations_Project

For all interviews in South Africa, we have parallel Sepedi/English 
translation in the main interview itself; for the Hindi and Malayalam 
interviews, we're working on a way to provide transcripts in English. 
(At the moment, the film contains excerpts of all interviews, subtitled 
in English). I guess we should have transcripts on all the interviews 
though, so that's something to work on...

Cheers!
Achal
