Every single edition of Britannica published BEFORE 1942 is public domain.
All the others expire when they get their 70th anniversary of publication,
which in the 2010 case will be 2080 (very close) ;) ;)

Congratulations, Telugu Wikipedians! This is an important milestone and you
deserve all the warmest best wishes.
May I suggest a community meetup to celebrate this? A landmark like this can
provide acceleration to your community - and could be the catalyst for more

I would like to publicly say that I have erred in naming Noopur here. I did
not mean to cast any aspersion on her and her good work and track record.
I thought that since she is a publicly known figure with responsibilities

Noopur, thanks for understanding and your kind note.
I would request you to discuss with other women editors during the

you decide for yourselves.

I believe it already is in the public domain. Back go 2009, when I was
looking up sources for Transport in India, there was a template
stating that the article incorporated text from Encyclopedia
Britanica, which is PD. Not to be confused with the CIA Factbook
template.

excellent Swaroop! The only thing that I find odd is suggestion to
overbook. Creating a waitlist seems to be making it an exclusivity.
While I can say this is bad, as it is against Wikipedia principles, I
can also say that Exclusivity builds interest. I know this sounds
crazy, but do let me know
Probably was one of the templates here:

As we said, all articles from 1911 edition of Britannica is PD.

Strong support to Bala's statement. The Tamil wiki contest is
different from a photowalk. The main aim of it was to increase content
related to Tamil. As for articles being created based on the entries,
I can show the one I created on Coimbatore bypass.

Also, Noopur, Anirudh, Nikita, Konark, don't feel guilty about

collective responsibility.

I think they could, but the people who will eventually decide about the
