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!
