Hi everyone,
See more photos here - http://oxitech.net/WPMB
It was a great day for me (10 Jan 2010) as it was my first time i attended a Wikipedia meet in my life. It was in Bangalore.
What is bangalore Wikipedia meetup ?
-The Wikipedia Bangalore meetup is a monthly get-together of Wikipedians (contributors and users) to meet up, discuss, share experiences, reach out and advocate for Wikipedia and wikimedia.
Check the wiki page about Bangalore Meetup 9 -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Bangalore/Bangalore9
I was just thinking that Wikipedia is a place where so much data is available, but how ? who enters this data ? who are they ? what they do ?
First time in my life i met those people, ya really i met them personally.
Highlights -
Demo of AWB (AutoWikiBrowser) given by Tinucherian. It was awesome. I was not knowing about mass wiki editing.
Even heard about Samskrita Bharati - India. And came to know that Sanskrit learners and speakers are increasing. Checkout website -http://www.samskritabharati.org/sbindia/
Something new i heard is about dbpedia site. Still i have to test it practically.
