him to see if he can design anything for Wikipedia.in, etc.
hi Mahitgar,
Thank you for making me question some of the assumptions I have in my
mind when I talk to people about Wikipedia and for reminding me to
question them before every Academy and workshop.

hi,
Just curious. Is there any other writing by Gandhi that goes under the
same license? Also, any ideas on where Gandhi might have put out this
note saying No Rights Reserved? Was there a precedent?
I know this is clearly off-topic but curiosity cannot be satiated.

Hi,
The design looks nice. The photo mentions the person as a singer. Actually,
it is a photograph of a person smoking a Hukka and a covered sword on the
lap. Nothing to do with any musician.
I also liked the current design of wikimedia.in. Rather simple but clean.

Hello everyone,
Srikanth,
There is copyright law in India for last many decades and most people were/are
following the same before wikipedia had not taken a birth. There is no need to
make generic comments on Indians for no reason. We are Indians and we should be
proud of that.
