Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Reordering interwiki list

[Srikanth Ramakrishnan]

This would be useful.
As a side note, if you open the Main Page of any non Indic Wikipedia, you'd
notice that there are NO links to any Indian language wikipedia's on the
left.
Cheers,

[Wikimediaindia-l] Regarding "Introduction to Wikipedia"

[Subhashish Panigrahi]

Dear All,

As the community members have been doing a lot of outreach programs in
different places we are trying to help them out to conduct the event
smoothly. Nitika has been working on a page and her interaction with the
community members have documentation has been saved at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Program/Outreach_Programs and here is
a Basic introduction to
Wikipedia
ppt.
Based on this I was working to make a more interactive presentation so that
the newbies attending a "Introduction to Wikipedia" session won't feel it
like a regular powerpoint presentation.

Here is a beta release
http://prezi.com/9lwwxhv7vqtg/introduction-to-wikipedia-the-free-encyclopedia/

I am still working to make it better and need your suggestion.

Moreover, we can make such presentations for Indian language only if the
text is converted to picture with transparent background, as this online
tool I am using doesn't support custom fonts.

So, please give your suggestions, ideas and we will work to make it better!

Best
Subha
