[Wikimediaindia-l] Wiki Data : New Wikimedia Project for Structured Data
Hi all, Wikimedia would be a starting new project WikiData. Details here[1] . I am particularly excited about how the interwiki data and API is made available and hope it would be immense use to all Indic languages, many possibilities of mashups, data extractions might be easier with the infrastructure. Sundar's idea to target Indic users using interwiki metadata, apps like interwikiredirector[2], can benefit significantly out of this. We shall look forward to hear more details on the project and wish all the success both technically, community wise.

Hi all, Last week Arabic Wikipedians organized Arabic Wikipedia Convening (WMF Blog Report [1]) hosted by Qatar Computing Research Institute at Doha. Since the Qatar Institute was looking at options on machine / manual translation to increase articles on Arabic Wikipedia, they had invited a Tamil Wikipedia - Google translation coordinator to learn from the experiences of other communities which did a large scale project. User:Sodabottle presented on the community experiences and learnings[2].
