Hi, Thanks Gerard and the team in background to make this happen quickly. We are already ready with some scanned books and even more are coming up in Unicode !!

[Wikimediaindia-l] Did you know
Hoi, The Marathi Wikisource now exists as a Wiki. It is the kind of thing that makes us happy in the language committee. We were happy to move things along a bit by considering to expedite our approval. The full localisation was not done but promises were made and are kept to make sure that the Marathi localisation of MediaWiki will be in and remain in good shape. We also pushed WMF ops to do a good job for the Marathi Wikisource and I am really happy that Sam Reed helped us out. All in all we are pleased and we hope that all issues that need to be resolved for future projects will be resolved quickly and, that we consequently will have many more projects starts like the one of the Marathi Wikisource. I hope it will prosper and help us realise our aim of bringing all information to the people of the world.

hi, Great to hear Srikanth! Also notice that it sends you to the mobile interface at Wikipedia. Thoughtful! warm regards, Pradeep Mohandas From: srik@gmail.com Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2011 21:07:13 +0530 To: wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] Did you know? * Did you know a lot of useful things were done at the Mediawiki India Hackathon see notes[1] . Thanks to all who made it happen and successful. I am writing about one of the tiniest piece(literally some 10 lines of code) of work done on Day 1 of the hackathon. After the initial interest on @DYKIndia[2], Arunmozhi[3] and myself started working on the DYKAPI[4] sometime back with the aim of creating a "perfect" API so that app developers can consume it. We are still far away from that perfect state, but as of now it gives a very random fact from 40k + facts stored. So I thought I would do a txtweb plugin to the current API, so that one could use it as a "stumble upon" on SMS to get random facts and browse to beat boredom. So please try out the didyouknow txtweb app by sending "@didyouknow" as an SMS to 09243342000 and check it out. There is lot more that can be done and much more scope for more such tools with Wikipedia Zero etc,So if you are interested and have some time, do ping me, I will keep you engaged with work!. I would also write a detailed blogpost on wikimedia.in soon which Arjuna has been requesting me for a while.
