Hello Everyone,

The results for Wikimedia Board elections are out and unfortunately Indian
candidates were unable to make it out.
I want to thank all the candidates who had  nominated themselves for this
election  to spread the awareness among the community.

I would like to thank all Indic  community members who had submitted their
votes during the election period, and I hope that more community members
will be aware of the WMF activities and participate in maximum numbers.

>From Indic language Wikipedia, Telugu language Wikimedian had voted in
highest numbers,
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_2015/Stats#WMF_Board_of_Trustees_Elections

Having least number of eligible voter among the community was a major
challenge to the Indic candidates. Mean time in future indic community
support is mostly important.
