Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Introduction
Hi Japleen, Welcome to the community. I missed this thread somehow. It is great to hear from you, and kudos to you for organising these workshops. I am keen to understand the retention of these users after the workshops. Because that is very important to build a local community. With you and Abhinav, actively leading these, I'm sure that we'll have an active Wikimedia community in Delhi soon :) Please let me know if you need any help.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Introduction
Welcome to the Wikimedia community, Japleen. And thank you for your valuable contribution to the movement. There are a few other English, Hindi and Punjabi Wikimedians that live in Delhi. You might want to subscribe to the Delhi list here (https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-in-del). There is also a gender gap list which is quite relevant to the work you do (https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/gendergap).

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Introduction to Wikipedia session during Kurukshetra2012, 4Feb2012 at CEG, Chennai
I am just amazed by the number of wiki workshops and academies taking place all over India since January. Nice going, everyone!

This event was intended to bring awareness among students attending this fest about writing articles in the Wikipedia. Subhashish took the audience through a presentationhttp://prezi.com/9lwwxhv7vqtg/introduction-to-wikipedia-the-free-encyclopedia/explaining basics of Wikipedia, how they can edit Wikipedia, what they can edit in Wikipedia. Later on the students questioned about authenticity of articles edited by multiple editors and there was a discussion regarding that. Students also questioned if Wikipedia editing will help them to gain some qualities and certifications which will help them during their campus placements. There were also questions regarding Technical projects and questions regarding jobs at Wikimedia. There were curious folks who questioned abut the cause of blackout against SOPA and PIPA! The questions asked by students had lot of valid points regarding notability and authenticity of Wikipedia articles, there is need for documentation of them in the form of FAQs, So, majority of the important questions and answers to them would be documented in the meta page of Outreach Program Handbook FAQhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meta/India_Program/Outreach_Program_Handbook/FAQaction=editredlink=1 . After the discussion Surya spoke about Tamil Wikipediahttp://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Pageand the on going Tamil Media Contesthttp://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%88%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%BE%E0%AE%9A%E0%AE%B2%E0%AF%8D:%E0%AE%8A%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%AA%E0%AF%8D_%E0%AE%AA%E0%AF%8B%E0%AE%9F%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF .
