Hi Sundar

We have indeed posted on Tamil Wikipedia already, my colleagues were having
issues with the fonts on Tamil wikipedia so the exact location might not be
apparent, I did want to post it on the Embassy Page for localization which I
would appreciate any help with if anyone is still willing to translate it
for us.

My Colleague Deniz had already posted two updates at these locations:

 I couldn't find your notice at the Tamil Wiki VP, Salmaan.
 Did I miss it during the holidays?

 Hi Everyone,
 
 
 I am working for the WIkimedia Foundation for this year's fundraiser. The
 Foundation wants to dedicate part of the resources from the fundraising
 campaign
 
 to seek non-financial contributions from our readers. We are working on
 something for the Indian language projects in particular, in line with the
 five

 year plan and the priority of Indian Wikis.
 
 
 The essence of the contribute campaign is not only to drive up
 participation on

 the projects but also to get our readers to make their very first edit on
 Wikipedia.
 
 
 I have been tasked as part of the fundraising team to support local indian
 languages; we have already posted to all relevant Wikipedia VPs seeking
 participation and informing them of this year's fundraiser.
 
 
 We want to work with the community members and provide any support that we
 can,

 I have briefly discussed with Srikanth about supporting the next
 Wiki-marathon.

 If anyone has any ideas, projects that would be conducive to our common
 goal,
 Please feel free to share them.
 
 
 
 
 Regards

Please do be in touch directly with Prof Vijay Chitnis (
simplystrate...@gmail.com) if anyone would like to follow up on this. He is
not a member of this list.

Prof Chitnis: as discussed, I am forwarding this to the India list. Will
also send separately to the Marathi wikipedia list and connect you with some
Marathi editors.

Cheers
Bishakha
