[Wikimediaindia-l] Re: South Asia's Selector for the Movement Charter Process

[Suyash Dwivedi]

Hi
I would like to urge affiliate members to proactively participate in this
discussion. The meeting is scheduled for 7pm tomorrow and the day after is
the last late to nominate the selector for the region. The selectors will
play a very important role in selecting some members for the drafting
committee. To have our voices heard, it's important to have our
representative as selector. Please consider nominating yourself for the
role of selector as well.

 Santhosh Thottingal
 
 has won the Maharshi Badrayan Vyas Samman by the Hon. President of
 India
 .
 This is in recognition of his substantial contribution in the field of
 Malayalam language. The award, instituted in 2016, is given to the
 substantial contributions to languages such as Sanskrit, Persian, Arabi,
 Pali and Classical Oriya, Classical Kannada, Classical Telugu, and
 Classical Malayalam. This is given to young scholars in the age group
 of 30 to 45 years
 .
 The Presidential award carries a certificate of honor, a memento and a
 one-time cash prize of Rs.1 lakh.

 Santhosh is one of the most active contributors of Swathanthra
 Malayalam Computing and a principal engineer in Wikipedia's language
 computing department. He has designed and released several algorithms and
 tools that serve computing needs in many Indian languages including
 Malayalam. He heads the maintenance of a dozen or so of the popular
 Malayalam fonts. Santhosh (along Kavya) designed two of these fonts,
 Chilanka and Manjari
 .
 He has contributed
 
 tools that serve a broad range of language computing needs - input tools,
 layout tools, fonts, font rendering, text to speech, translation,
 localization are just a few of these areas. He has also contributed and
 presented papers at several international conferences.

 Dr. Rajeev R. R from the e-governance and training department of ICFOSS
 has also been selected for this award along with Santhosh.

 We hope this award inspires Santhosh and Rajeev to push the boundaries
 of Language computing.

[Wikimediaindia-l] Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 in India

[Suyash Dwivedi]

Dear Indian Community Members,

I take immense pride in letting you know, Wiki Loves Monuments in
India would take place once again this year in India.

Wiki Loves Monuments is a global photo competition that takes place
generally in September. Wikimedia India would officially be organising this
competition in India.

The aim of the contest is to ask the general public—readers and users of
Wikipedia, photographers, hobbyists, etc.—to take pictures of cultural
heritage monuments and upload them to Wikimedia Commons for use on
Wikipedia and its other sister projects.

I request Indian community to help us make this event a grand success.
Please sign up as volunteers here
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2017_in_India>
 <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_
Monuments_2017_in_India>

Looking forward to your ideas, suggestions, and strategies.

Thanks,
Suyash Dwivedi
