Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] [Wikipatrika]: Announcing the third issue of Wikipatrika!
I've now read this from top to toe, or at least gone through everything I had not read before - congratulations to all those who were involved. It's brilliant! I found it interesting, useful, timely - and the layout is easy to navigate (specially the community news section, with each language community as a separate tab). And of course, it's only when you see it all in the same place that you realize the huge amount of work that is happening in India. Cheers and may wikipatrika go from strength to strength!

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Vodafone advertisement -- Internet is fun, Wikipedia
I agree with Mitra. Though I think someone should get in touch with Vodafone IN and find out more info.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Vodafone advertisement -- Internet is fun, Wikipedia
Don't know about free, but their detailed adhttp://www.vodafone.in/internetisfun/pages/home.aspx?cid=kol[1] mentions two things beneficial to our cause...Seems all this much outreach is finally working... 1. Access more than 21 million articles in 285 languages - Hope people now realise Wikipedia is more than just English Wikipedia. 2. Create and edit your own articles. - Don't know how risky the statement is but the fact that Wikipedia can be edited is now widespread. I just hope people don't think Vodafone lets you edit Wikipedia and that otherwise Wikipedia can't be edited.
