[Wikimediaindia-l] Please sign up for WikiProject India if you are an English language Wikipedian (yes, English is an Indic language)

I suddenly realised that amongst the guys who signed up for WikiProject India in Jan-Feb are such hardcore Wikipedians as RSrikanth05, Joyson Prabhu, Karthikndr & Sitush. Which brings me to the corollary - there are oodles of established Indian editors who are not yet members of WikiProject India!

Thank you all for the warm welcome. :) I really look forward to working with you all on this project. As far the term "ownership" is concerned, I don't think Nitika literally meaned it. I am just a volunteer and helping out AshLin as he is overloaded with work. :) Regards, Pratik Lahoti User:BPos

Thanks for the heads up Parakara Ghoda, I'm sure Nitika will be careful about using this term. On the other hand, when it comes to doing things especially where responsibility is concerned, we do find that few people come forward to volunteer and "own" a process or responsibility. We saw that at W
