The title is misleading.

There are hundreds of Indians behind Wikipedia. They should have actually titled this particular feature Indians in Wikimedia Foundation or such. Wikipedia is what it is today because of the community, the volunteers. It is rather unfair towards all the fine community members, editors from India who spend hours of their daily time editing Wikipedia when they are not included in what is titled Indians behind Wikipedia. :P -- Hari Prasad Nadig http://hpnadig.net | http://twitter.com/hpnadig http://flickr.com/hpnadig ___ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l

Lets not forget its IBN, the people who thought Wikipedia and Wikileaks are same. Probably we need to organise a serious media - tutoring session going forward.

Probably we need to organise a serious media - tutoring session going forward. I would say the article is half-half. Frankly speaking, apart from Bhishaka and Alolita I didn't know if there are more Indians associated with Wikimedia . If I didn't know and wanted to connect with them, there are no contact details nor a way to connect with them. Of the 6 people figured, only where one person, Mr. Neil Kangdalgoankar he is based in San Francisco is known, for others no information in that regard.
