    <title>10 years of Kannada Wikipedia: Many more miles to go! </title>
    <link>https://cis-india.org/news/bangalore-citizenmatters-november-18-2013-10-years-of-kannada-wikipedia</link>
    <description>
        &lt;b&gt;Kannada Wikipedia community had a celebration that was introspective as well. Plans were chalked out on adding more content.&lt;/b&gt;
        &lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;This blog post by Pavithra Hanchagaiah was &lt;a class="external-link" href="http://bangalore.citizenmatters.in/articles/kannada-wikipedia-completes-10-years"&gt;published in CitizenMatters Bangalore&lt;/a&gt; on November 18, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Just two months away to welcome a New Year, Kannada Wikipedians celebrated the &lt;a href="https://kn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%B2%B5%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%95%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AA%E0%B3%80%E0%B2%A1%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%AF:%E0%B2%B8%E0%B2%AE%E0%B3%8D%E0%B2%AE%E0%B2%BF%E0%B2%B2%E0%B2%A8/%E0%B2%A6%E0%B2%B6%E0%B2%AE%E0%B2%BE%E0%B2%A8%E0%B3%8B%E0%B2%A4%E0%B3%8D%E0%B2%B8%E0%B2%B5" target="_blank"&gt;completion of 10 years &lt;/a&gt;of  journey towards building a free encyclopedia for Kannada. Wikipedians  from different part of the state gathered today at H Narasimhaiah Hall,  National College, Basavanagudi to witness the event.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;The stage was adorned by the father of the modern Kannada dictionary,  Nadoja Prof G Venkatasubbaiah, the chief guest, along with T R  Anantharamu, Senior Scientist (retd), Geological Survey of India, Abhaya  Simha, National Award fame Cinema Director and U B Pavanaja from A2K  (Access To Knowledge).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table class="plain" style="text-align: justify; "&gt;

&lt;th&gt;&lt;img src="https://cis-india.org/home-images/TenYears.png" alt="Ten Years" class="image-inline" title="Ten Years" /&gt;&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Wikipedia has been the key source of knowledge for a kid to complete  its assignments to a research activity for a scientist. It has been one  of world’s 5th topmost accessed website. Various languages across the  world made a way to emerge language-specific Wikipedias and Kannada has  been one of them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;In the 10 years of its inception, Kannada Wikipedia has grown up to  accumulate around 13000 articles and still a long way to go in terms of  building a language which has around 2000 years of history. U B Pavanaja  shared his opinions on importance of building Kannada Wikipedia along  with his stands on upcoming areas for development. He said that  informative articles are less at the moment and it should be the focus  going forward.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Nadoja Prof G Venkatasubbaiah addressed the audience wishing  Wikipedians and insisting youth to participate more with Kannada  Wikipedia. He felt that completing 10 years isn’t sufficient but the  growth should continue by participating more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;T R Ananthramu said being a scientist, he understands the challenges  in research activities to dig the accurate information for a particular  topic. He thinks the need for domain experts to actively participate in  Kannada Wikipedia to add the right content which will in turn help  everyone to get correct information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Abhay Simha, Cinema Director, said that having his father Ashoka  Vardhana who runs a book publication and a book stall and grandfather,  GT Narayan Rao who was a science writer, he knows the need for timely  updation with respect to reprinting science books. Realising the  benefits of Creative Commons introduced by Omshivaprakash H L, SIG  Chair, Kannada Wikipedia, Abhay has released the science-related books  written by his Grandfather under CC License. He wished that all these  books get added to Wikipedia and the knowledge is shared with everyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;The celebration continued with demonstration on editing Wikipedia by  Omshivapraksh followed by a session on Creative Commons licenses by  Kiran Ravi Kumar, who is an engineering student from Mysore. The event  was ended by an Edit-o-thon for the Wikipedians to add new articles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;On marking the 10th year completion, the active users of Kannada  Wikipedia who have been editing and adding articles from years were  given mementos as appreciation to acknowledge their contribution. Harish  M G, Tejas Jain, Pramod R and a few of them recieved the token of  appreciation during the event. A few of the Wikipedians shared their  experience briefing difficulties that a user faces at the beginning and  how to overcome all the barriers to involve in editing Wikipedia.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;It was a fruitful event that made the participants understand and  realise the need for exponential growth of Kannada Wikipedia and moving  forward to make a rich and free Encyclopedia for the Kannada community.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>১৩ কোটি আধার তথ্য ফাঁস চার সরকারি পোর্টাল থেকে! বিস্ফোরক দাবি রিপোর্টে </title>

        &lt;b&gt;খোদ সরকারি পোর্টাল থেকে কয়েক কোটি আধার নম্বর ও যাবতীয় তথ্য ‘ফাঁস’!&lt;/b&gt;
        &lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;This was published by &lt;a class="external-link" href="http://abpananda.abplive.in/india-news/13-crore-aadhaar-leaked-due-to-poor-security-in-4-govt-websites-334778"&gt;Amar Bazar Patrika&lt;/a&gt; on May 2, 2017.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr style="text-align: justify; " /&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;অভিযোগ, গত কয়েক মাসে প্রায় ১৩ কোটি আধার  নম্বরের যাবতীয় ব্যক্তিগত ও সংবেদনশীল তথ্য ফাঁস হওয়ার ঘটনা ঘটেছে। আর এসবই  হয়েছে চারটি সরকারি পোর্টাল থেকে তথ্যপ্রযুক্তি সুরক্ষার ঘাটতির জেরে! যা  ঘিরে এখন তোলপাড় দেশ।&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;সম্প্রতি, এমনই বিস্ফোরক রিপোর্ট প্রকাশ  করেছে অলাভদায়ক সংগঠন সেন্টার ফর ইন্টারনেট অ্যান্ড সোসাইটি (সিআইএস)।  তাদের আশঙ্কা, চারটি সরকারি পোর্টালের মাধ্যমে ১০ কোটি মানুষের ব্যাঙ্ক  অ্যাকাউন্ট নম্বরও ফাঁস হয়ে থাকতে পারে।&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;সংস্থার দাবি, যে চারটি পোর্টাল থেকে এই  সব তথ্য ফাঁসের অভিযোগ, তার মধ্যে দু’টি অন্ধ্রপ্রদেশ সরকারের ওয়েবসাইট।  বাকি দুটি পোর্টাল হল ন্যাশনাল সোশ্যাল অ্যাসিস্ট্যান্স প্রোগ্রাম এবং  ন্যাশনাল রুরাল এমপ্লয়মেন্ট গ্যারান্টি স্কিম-এর।&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;এই গোটা ঘটনার জন্য ইউনিক আইডেন্টিফিকেশন  অথরিটি অফ ইন্ডিয়া বা ইউআইডিএআই–কেই দায়ী করেছে সিআইএস। তাদের দাবি, আধার  নিয়ন্ত্রক সংস্থার ‘দায়িত্বজ্ঞানহীনতার’ জন্যই এই উদ্ভুত পরিস্থিত সৃষ্টি  হয়েছে।&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;সিএনআই-এর আরও দাবি, বিভিন্ন সরকারি ও  বেসরকারি পোর্টাল—যারা আধার তথ্য ব্যবহার করে থাকে, তাদের নিজস্ব  সুরক্ষা-ব্যবস্থা খতিয়ে দেখেনি ইউআইডিএআই। ফলত, এই বিপত্তির সম্মুখীন কয়েক  কোটি মানুষ।&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;যদিও, ইউআইডিএআই -এর দাবি, তাদের ডেটাবেস থেকে কোনও তথ্য ফাঁস হয়নি।&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>8th IBA International Conference</title>
    <link>https://cis-india.org/a2k/news/8th-iba-international-conference</link>
    <description>
        &lt;b&gt;The 8th IBA International Conference was organized by Indus Business Academy in Bengaluru from March 24 to 26, 2016. The theme of the conference was Taking India to Greater Heights. Dr. U.B. Pavanaja gave a talk on Democratizing of Knowledge Access- Case of Regional Language Wikipedia.&lt;/b&gt;
        &lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;India’s journey since independence has been eventful. The long struggle against colonialism left Indian private capital in a poor state. The Government intervention was essential and hence there was a need for the public sector. Experiments with socialism and national planning turned out to be a mixed success. The 1991 crisis propelled India towards a market driven economy. Politically, its unpopularity reverted India to a state of socialism once again. The 2014 elections have renewed interest in a market driven economy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Indian achievements have been sizable. The successful Mars Mission, Agni mission, Green Revolution, White Revolution, IT industry growth all demonstrate the positive achievements that India has made in the last 60 odd years. In recent months, across the world, there is a renewed interest in India.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Yet we can hardly be complacent. The lowering oil prices, conflict in the Middle East, slowdown in Chinese economy, fears of Russian expansionism, decline in European growth, concerns about the state of US economy and rising trends in terrorism have created turbulence across different parts of the world.  India cannot be immune to these changes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;India’s response can manifest itself in multiple forms. There could be rapid expansion of defence procurement and preparedness both on external as well as internal fronts. It could involve building alliances with countries aligned strategically to Indi’s interests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;It could manifest through the rapid growth of manufacturing sector. The services sector could move higher in the value chain. The spillovers generated by the establishment of industries could spawn a major entrepreneurial ecosystem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;With the UN approval to celebrate International Yoga Day, India’s soft spiritual power is also rising in the horizon. Indian philosophical and ideological thoughts are getting renewed interest across different parts of the world. Indian talent, youth demographics etc. have literally placed India on the centre stage. No doubt, exciting times are ahead.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;This Conference aims to deliberate on such changes and suggest ways and means to leverage this growing interest in India and identify the new perspectives emerging in Business, Management, Leadership and Consciousness as a result of these changes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;The schedule for 8th IBA International Conference can be accessed  &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1w4qJMW1CRor7v3qwifu3yoDlpezQAzsC64To7blxRPY/pubhtml"&gt;&lt;span&gt;here&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

    <title>8 Challenges In Growing Indian-Language Wikipedias</title>
    <link>https://cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/huffington-post-march-19-2016-subhashish-panigrahi-8-challenges-in-growing-indian-language-wikipedias</link>
    <description>
        &lt;b&gt;While speaking at BHASHA: Indian Languages Digital Festival, a day-long discourse at New Delhi on Indian languages and their state in new media, especially digital platforms, I touched upon Wikipedia in Indian languages. Most people, in fact, do not even know that Wikipedia exists in many Indian languages. &lt;/b&gt;
        
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The article was first&amp;nbsp;published in &lt;a class="external-link" href="http://www.huffingtonpost.in/subhashish-panigrahi-/8-of-many-challenges-in-g_b_9457704.html"&gt;Huffington Post&lt;/a&gt; on March 19, 2016. This was cross-posted in &lt;a class="external-link" href="http://www.medianama.com/2016/03/223-indic-wikipedia-growth-slow-subhashish-panigrahi/"&gt;Medianama&lt;/a&gt; titled as Multiple key factors preventing Indic Wikipedia growth on March 21, 2016.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I personally did not know about the &lt;a href="https://or.wikipedia.org/" target="_hplink"&gt;Odia Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt; until 2011 when a friend told me about its existence. Back then the project was completely inactive. And then a couple of friends and I started contributing, and the project grew to what it is today. The site now has more than &lt;a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Odia_Wikipedia_stats_(January_2016).png" target="_hplink"&gt;300,000 visitors&lt;/a&gt; every month and it is the most-visited Odia language site on the internet. Other languages, I believe, could follow a similar trajectory on Wikipedia, but there are several challenges along the way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many people do not even know how to search for information online in their own language, typed in its script.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Ignorance of language communities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="callout"&gt;Many people do not even know how to search for information online in their own language, typed in its script. Some even share that because Google's home page does not have their script it means that their language does not exist on the internet. This ignorance perpetuates the gap.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2.Wikipedia's editor community&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Wikipedia, as you all know, is written and edited by people like you and me who volunteer their efforts. Many people probably do not know or do not try to learn that they themselves can correct the mistakes and inaccuracies that exist in many Wikipedia articles and become editors. The Wikipedia editor communities for several Indian languages are really small. When these languages are spoken by millions of people, only a &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.in/subhashish-panigrahi-/when-wikipedia-is-turning_b_9025690.html" target="_hplink"&gt;handful of editors&lt;/a&gt; contribute in editing the Wikipedia in these languages.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3.Language input in computers&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A vast majority of people in this country &lt;a href="http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2012-01-17/news/30635792_1_indian-languages-indic-computer" target="_hplink"&gt;do not&lt;/a&gt; know &lt;a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Universal_Language_Selector" target="_hplink"&gt;how to type&lt;/a&gt; in their own language. There is also little documentation for users to learn about language input. Even though many government-run schools in India are seeing more computers and internet, native language input is not widely. However, there is a lot of free software for language input and the &lt;a href="https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/W/W11/W11-3501.pdf" target="_hplink"&gt;challenges&lt;/a&gt; of typing in Indian language that existed a few years back have almost gone. You just have to look for the right tools.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Language input in mobile devices&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;With over &lt;a href="http://www.trai.gov.in/WriteReadData/PressRealease/Document/PR-TeleSubData_Oct_2015.pdf" target="_hplink"&gt;1 billion&lt;/a&gt; people with mobile phones, the 15% internet penetration rate will soon grow. This in turn will help a lot many Indians to get access to the internet. If these people are not educated about native language input then they will be unnecessarily constricted by the English-centric internet. Many Indians that have smartphones need inbuilt input methods to be able to contribute in their own language Wikipedia.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="callout"&gt;Many Indians that have smartphones need inbuilt input methods to be able to contribute in their own language Wikipedia.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Low availability of Indian-language content on the Internet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Lack of native language content on the Internet bars many from accessing knowledge. As per the Internet and Mobile Association of India survey conducted in 2012, over 6% of the population is deterred from going online because of lack of content in their languages. Take the example of my state. When the Kerala government's &lt;a href="https://www.keralatourism.org/languages/" target="_hplink"&gt;official tourism portal&lt;/a&gt; is available in Odia and other Indian languages, the Odisha government's tourism portal has &lt;a href="http://www.odishatourism.gov.in/" target="_hplink"&gt;no information&lt;/a&gt; in Odia language today. Our languages are neglected in our own states.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Mismatch of conventional and new media&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many conventional media houses still use non-standard variants of ASCII/ISCII script encoding systems instead of adopting the Unicode standard. Unicode being a global standard and having the advantage of unifying the world has been available for Indian languages for about &lt;a href="http://www.unicode.org/Public/reconstructed/1.0.0/UnicodeData.txt" target="_hplink"&gt;25 years&lt;/a&gt; now. But many of our traditional media have failed to adopt this. Many popular Indian-language newspapers are yet to become available in Unicode.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7. Lack of open access&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Most of the information produced on the internet in general and by the &lt;a href="http://www.bits-pilani.ac.in/uploads/Patent_ManualOct_25th_07.pdf" target="_hplink"&gt;government&lt;/a&gt;, in particular, is copyrighted. The paywalled garden of copyright restrictions keeps the information closed and stops people from sharing and learning more. On the contrary, Wikipedia is available under a &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License" target="_hplink"&gt;Creative Commons Share-Alike license&lt;/a&gt; which allows anyone to make use of the content and even distribute commercial copies of it. The idea of opening up information for the masses in a free license could make the information reach millions of people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="callout"&gt;Many conventional media houses still use non-standard variants of ASCII/ISCII script encoding systems instead of adopting the Unicode standard.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8. People with disabilities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many people cannot read, speak and write. India has over &lt;a href="http://www.entwb.com/public-patients/general-information/deafness" target="_hplink"&gt;60 million people&lt;/a&gt; with hearing impairment. There is a need for a good quality text-to-speech and speech-to-text engine for people with physical disabilities. Also, these software products have to be free so that common people who cannot afford to buy expensive proprietary software like JAWS can contribute to Wikipedia in their language. Many text-to-speech engines that are available today for Indian languages sound so mechanical that it is tough for common speakers to use them.&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;b&gt;This summitt organised by Internet and Mobile Association of India is being held in New Delhi from January 16 to 17, 2013 at the Lalit Hotel&lt;/b&gt;
        &lt;p&gt;Sunil Abraham is the moderator for Plenary Session 3: Discussion on Social Media – Freedom, Moderation or Regulation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Theme of the Summit&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;951 million mobile users with 448 million mobile data subscribers; 137 million Internet users and rural Internet growing 7x in the last two years make India one of the top three digital markets in the world. One of only top two at this scale with free market economy democratic polity; and the only one where there is still headroom for growth. The time to invest in Digital India is now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;By 2020 riding on a government investment of 4 billion USD [roughly 10 billion USD on PPP terms] Internet users is expected to be 600 million; and mobile would possibly penetrate 100% of rural India creating the largest free economy digital market in the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;The Digital Opportunity now and in the next 5 years in India is explosive. And the need to create a Digital Economy on scale is a developmental necessity. The opportunity, however, lies in addressing the current challenges of the ability to provide: low cost connectivity, universal access, usable content, secure networks, affordable devices and enabling policy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: justify; "&gt;Building on the theme of “Creating the World’s Largest Free Market Digital Economy” the 7th India Digital Summit will focus on five tracks: Infrastructure, Regulatory Frameworks, Services &amp;amp; Content, Entrepreneurship / Innovation and Business 3.0.&lt;/p&gt;
