 Dear all,

 Odia Wikisource went live yesterday and is available at:
 https://or.wikisource.org. It was in the main Wikisource for about 1.9
 years and has an active community consisting 8 contributors. So far almost
 3 books have been digitized. Recently  a few new contributors joined and
 are digitizing Odia Bhagabata.

 CIS-A2K congratulates the community and thank all the contributors,

 Wikimedians who have helped to set up the wiki.

[Wikimediaindia-l] Odia author's book under CC-by-SA 4.0 license - 11 more books for Odia Wikisource

2014-10-29 Thread Subhashish Panigrahi
Dear all,

It is an honour and pleasure to announce that CIS-A2K is getting 11 Odia books 
of notable Odia litterateur Ramakrushna Nanda under CC-by-SA 4.0. 11 of these 
books contain an encyclopedia, a series of 8 story books, an Odia grammar book, 
and an essay book. These books will be useful both for Odia Wikisource and Odia 
Wikipedia. Our greatest regard to the late author.

To thank Nanda's family, we interviewed and made a small documentary with their 
reaction about bringing these books on Wikisource:
