Hi everyone, The Wikimedia Foundation, in partnership with Google and the Centre for Internet and Society, is launching a pilot project to address local online knowledge content gaps in India. The project is designed to engage and support active Wikipedia volunteers to produce valuable new content in local Indian languages. The pilot will run from November 2017 to May 2018 and will collaborate with Wikimedia India chapter, Wikimedia user groups, and may involve up to ten Indian language Wikimedia communities based on their interest and participation.
The overall goal of the project is to increase the number, depth, and relevance of Wikipedia articles in Indian languages. We will evaluate success along these dimensions and will share results with the Wikimedia community after the pilot’s completion. You can learn more about the pilot here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Supporting_Indian_Language_Wikipedias_Program> .
