Hi Shivani,
It is better now. See some comments below:
In "project architecture" you mention 2 implementation scenarios but
nothing more on that.
I guess you could say which one you will choose or what you will do to
decide when the time comes.
Even stating that you will do what your mentor suggests could be good too.
Regarding the timeline, What I said is that you could break the tasks you
already created even further and put them in your timeline too.
For both timeline and Architecture I am not 100% convinced that you
understood 100% what you are going to do implement.
The reason is that I see a lot of small parts copied & pasted from the idea
page and the mails we exchanged that don't fit well all together.
Maybe your English is not perfect (which will not be a problem for GSoC)
but, for example I am not sure that you understood the "User Script" part
correctly in the following:
"Testing of the code and implementing some information would also be
inserted into Wikipedia via User Script"
About the project links, you don't have to publish them.
However, since you mention them you could describe them a little further
(btw, they are fine now)
Best,
Dimitris
