This is an awesome development. Real infrastructure building. All these make for ease of use of Indian wikis especially for a polyglot people like we are. It is obvious that a whole lot of people came together and developed this. it has happened very smoothly too. None of the fireworks we have seen in some of our larger collaborations. Awarding barnstars seems too trivial an award here. On behalf of all of us, I would like to offer our heartfelt thanks : - Wikimedia CH / Switzerland Chapter and Manuel Schneider - Rajesh K Odayanchal - Jyothis E - Anirudh, Noopur Raval, Surya, Radhakrishna, Omshivaprakash, Debanjan, Saroj, Swaroop, Abhishek Suryawanshi and any others who have helped in translations . - Tanvir Rahman , Tinu Cherian and Arun Ram. - Arjuna Rao C, and everyone at Wikimedia India Chapter. - Anyone else inadvertantly left out but who contributed - Last but not least, our hardworking secretary, Naveen. May I request Naveen to forward this post to those not on this list so that they realise that the community really appreciates the hard work put in. This imho should be one of the positive trends celebrated in next WikiConference like we mentioned Narayam in the last one.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] [WMIN-Members] New Wikimedia India Portals
Hi all, On behalf of the Wikimedia India chapter, I would like to sincerely thank everyone who helped this initiative. The job is not complete and the portals still need lots of tweaking and improvements. If the efforts of Naveen are left unmentioned, it would be very unfair. The Wikimedia Project Gateways is essentially the brain child and one of the dream projects of our Secretary, Naveen Francis. I am sure he wouldn't allow me to tell it here if asked, but I have to confess that Naveen had even invested lots of his personal money in obtaining the domains too. His efforts in getting this work done is really applaudable. Thank you, Naveen everyone. We sincerely hope that you will find these portals useful and informative.
