Any thoughts on this in the context of indic language wikipedias - specially
how to lessen the gap?

It's a great article.
I notice that LinuxChix (http://www.linuxchix.org) has an Indian chapter
and what seems to be an active community
(http://www.linuxchix.org/india.html) - sounds like it would be a good
idea to talk to them soon.

Dear admins of WikimediaIndia-l and others connected to it,
I only noticed recently that the list description for WikimediaIndia-l

Personally, I find that a bit limiting - given that it (seems) to

I don't agree. The point is simply to make the list more inclusive to
all Indians (and everyone else) interested in Wikimedia in India, and
this includes those working in English. Having said that, I don't think

I kind of agree with Achal on this one, the description should be changed to
be as inclusive as possible. It's topics related to India, Indic languages

It seems ironic to
Hoi,
I am on record that it is vital for any subject matter to have a substantial
coverage on the English Wikipedia. I am on record that this is true
particularly for India. This is because most people prefer to read the
English Wikipedia.

Enabling Commons images for a MediaWiki installation is very simple. I

You had ported an English Wikipedia for Schools to the portable ZIM

Thanks, but with all due respect, I have a few doubts and concerns. I've

What is the problem in file uploads? Not enabled in LocalSettings.php again?

Hi Jyothis,
AFAIK, this MW is privately hosted by a chapter exec com
member on his personal webhosting, as of now. Enabling file uploading is
costlier, hence probably.
My suggestion is to move it to the Wikimedia servers ( like
some other chapters), so that we needn't
Tinu,
That would work, but depends upon how you wish to move (completely managed
Vs just availing space and bandwidth, but server managed by chapter) to the
foundation servers. if chapter staff is going manage the installation (and
not foundation), someone still needs to set it up correctly.
Hoi,
I think that is a good name.

It is unnecessarily long and does not add much in terms of explanation. I
suggest keeping it short as
