[Wikimediaindia-l] [A2K]: Workshop at SRM University and meet up

2012-12-12 Thread noopur
  

Dear all, 

Metawings, an organization that holds soft skills
training workshops for students across colleges in India has offered us
a day to hold a _free _Wikipedia workshop on 17th December at SRM
University near Chenna. Over 60 students have registered so far. Here
are the details of the event: 

VENUE: SRM University, Kattankulathur
Campus, Kanchipuram District, Tamilnadu- 603203 

DATE AND TIME: 1:30 pm
- 1:30 pm, 17th Dec, 2012 

I will be conducting the workshop. Of
course, everyone from the community is welcome to join in! Please do
reply with your suggestions for the event. 

After this workshop, I
would be going over to IIT, Madras to meet a bunch of students who have
been editing and want to informally meet up and see what they can do
around Wikipedia in their college. Yuvi would be joining me for both.


Thank you, 

Best

[Wikimediaindia-l] Fwd: [A2K] Workshop at NMAMIT, Karkala in Karnataka

2012-12-12 Thread Subhashish Panigrahi
Dear all,

We have an opportunity to organize a Wikipedia workshop at NMAMIT,
Karkala in Karnataka on 21st December. It will be a day long workshop
with over 100 students, mostly to tell them about Wikipedia in Indian
languages and how they can contribute.

I am yet to confirm the time for the workshop but it will be held at
NMAMIT on 21st December. Would any Wikipedians from the Bangalore
community want to join me?

CIS would be willing to support the travel expense for upto 2
wikipedians to and from Bangalore (or any other place in Karnataka
that is close to Karkala). If you know any wikipedian from any other
nearby places do let me know.

We are still planning it out and the more the merrier it is! Please
write to me offlist if you are interested.


Best!
