Throwing a few ideas since our participation tendency seems positive: 1) Can we start doing a few things in the background: compile lists of monuments? ASI already has the list for monuments of national importance, State wise: http://asi.nic.in/asi_monu_alphalist.asp 2) Let's sign up/raise hands for people who can help figure out how-to guides, do documentation and collect resources/materials so that it's easy to implement this template event anywhere? 3) Just a suggestion: Can we have a GLAM India mailing list so that for now we can keep all GLAM related, Monuments discussions on that? Keeps it neater but this is just a suggestion.
As always, *me raises hand first*. I am looking around for more monument lists while you guys figure out the organization bit. :) Warmly Noopur On Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 6:52 PM, Mitra sharma <mittyko...@gmail.com> wrote: > thanks! :) > > > On 19 December 2011 15:21, Srikanth Ramakrishnan <parakara.gh...@gmail.com > > wrote: > >> Mitra, >> The simplest way to get started on the Wikipedia is to click on the >> Edit button.
