If it relates to editing English Wikipedia, I can help monitor the

all students returned the next day. Hence, we hope to have generated a lot
of interest as well as made it clear to them, that editing an
Hey folks,
There are over 20 Tech fests that are being conducted by several institutes
across India over the next 2 months. I'm sure my list is not completely
exhaustive and I might have missed a few. I was wondering if any of you know
