<b>Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Friday launched a new web portal of ‘Odia Virtual Academy’ (www.ova.gov.in) to promote the Odia language and literature at the Secretariat here.</b>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">The article was <a class="external-link" href="http://www.newindianexpress.com/states/odisha/2018/oct/27/odia-virtual-academy-launched-1890628.html">published in the New Indian Express</a> on October 27, 2018.</p>
<hr style="text-align: justify; " />
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Launching the web portal, the Chief Minister said, “It is a matter of pleasure that the new web portal of the ‘Odia Virtual Academy’ is being dedicated today. Odia language has received the classical status.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">A lot of literature has also been created in Odia language. The Academy has taken the responsibility for promotion, preservation and digitisation of the Odia language and literature.” Naveen said the new website will be helpful in the promotion of Odia language at the international level, especially for the Non Resident Odias (NROs). He said youths will also benefit from the Academy.<br /><br />Three memoranda of understanding (MoUs) were signed by the State Government with the University of Chicago library, CDAC and Centre for Internet and Society, Bengaluru to expedite digitisation of Odia literature and development of Odia software. “This will go a long way in enhancing the visibility of Odia language and literature in the digital space,” he said.<br /><br />So far, as many as 170 books of Odia literature have been placed in the Academy website. The prime objective of the Academy is digitisation of about 2000 rare and copyright free Odia books and establishment of a free digital library, digitisation of various Odia dictionaries available presently for free access, promotion of Odia unicode font faces through standardisation of typing keyboards and making those affordable for public in coming six months and development of primers and uploading those for easy learning.<br /><br />Besides, the Academy’s purpose is to digitise and preserve Odia lexicon, ancient magazines and journals, traditional music, ancient documents, literature on science and history, folk culture, tribal language and literature, history-oriented essays, speech of great personalities, Sri Jagannath culture, temple and its architecture.</p>

https://cis-india.org/openness/odia-wikipedia-takes-puri
<b>The first ever Odia Wikipedia workshop in Odisha's historic town of Puri finally shaped in on this December 20. With 25 participants contributing to Odia Wikipedia this day, more Wikipedia outreach in the city were planned.</b>
<p>Organised at the Premier Institute of Computer Studies (PICS), this <a class="external-link" href="https://or.wikipedia.org/s/x0w">workshop</a> saw many students from technical background including four female participants. The Google Local Guides group of Bhubaneswar collaborated with us in organising this workshop. Thanks to long time Odia Wikimedian Dr Subas Chandra Rout to spare time and taking pain in coming all the way from Bhubaneswar to mentor the new editors. Only 10-12 participants could sign up on the spot because of IP address throttle that we could not fix beforehand. Otherwise the event went well and after a week, many of the participants have turned out to be active on Odia Wikipedia which is pretty exciting.<br /><br />We planned to organise a meetup once in two month at Puri with the focus on improving at least 20-25 articles related to to the city and district during the meetup. There was a three-minute coverage of the workshop on Odisha Television (OTV) and a brief report of the workshop was <a class="external-link" href="http://odishareporter.in/puri-internetre-odia/">published</a> on Odisha Reporter.</p>
<p>As part our effort in chronicling the voice of the Wikipedia community in the <a class="external-link" href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikipediansSpeak">WikipediansSpeak series</a>, we reached out to Wikimedians <a class="external-link" href="https://or.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Subas_Chandra_Rout">Dr. Subas Chandra Rout</a> and <a class="external-link" href="https://or.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Th3snehasish">Snehasish Nayak</a> after the workshop. Dr Rout shares his interactions and future plans to expand the Odia Wikimedia community:</p>
<p class="callout"><strong>Subhashish Panigrahi (SP): Thank you so much for mentoring these new Wikimedians! How was your overall experience working with them?</strong><br />Subas Chandra Rout (SRR): The participants were, indeed, very enthusiastic. They not just were good listeners when we were presenting but contributed well after we demonstrated.</p>
<p class="callout"><strong>SP: How often do you think we should come back here and work with the same set of participants?<br /></strong>SRR: I think one more visit to ensure that they feel more integrated with the larger Odia Wikimedia community and help them contribute more. Face-to-face interaction will also help them feel more comfortable to share the kind of problems they might have been facing.</p>
<p class="callout"><strong>SP: What kind of problems did they face during the workshop? How did you help them with those problems?</strong><br />There were certain technical/logistics problems which kind of made us keep the workshop limited to more demonstration by us and less practice by them. Sailesh seems be following up with them as some of them have already started editing Wikipedia actively.</p>
<p><em>Snehasish Nayak, organiser of the event and a new active Wikimedian of the Odia community—it is worth mentioning that Snehasish has 360 edits on Odia Wikipedia already—shares more about himself, his interests and ideas for future projects:</em></p>
<p class="callout"><strong>Subhashish Panigrahi (SP): How and when you got introduced to Odia Wikipedia? Did you know about it before or heard from someone before you formally got an orientation?<br /></strong>Snehasish Nayak (SN): The first time I got to know
about Odia Wikipedia was during the Google I/O 2015 event. It was Sailesh
Pattnaik who introduced me to Odia Wikipedia. My Wikipedia journey
started in December 2015, when Sailesh asked me for some help to
conduct a Odia Wikipedia in my hometown Puri. </p>
<p class="callout"><strong>SP: You graduated as an engineer. Many engineers in India do not even contribute much to language related work, especially the ones that are not paid for. What drives you to contribute so much that you have crossed 360 edits in just three weeks?<br /></strong>SN: From my school days, Wikipedia
has been good friend to me. I don’t remember in how many projects Wikipedia has come to my rescue. And in return Wikipedia never asked for anything. I felt it would be the best platform to share free knowledge across the globe.Odia being my native language and it being a very old language needs contribution from the youth like me. In the era of digital revolution Odia Wikipedia has the potential of empowering every single Odia with the sum of the world's knowledge any time of in any place. If anyone asks me about what I am getting in return because of my contribution, my first answer would be "knowledge". I have learnt quite a lot after I started contributing to Odia Wikipedia. And after each contribution, it gives me a great feeling that I have done something useful for the world”. It inspires me to contribute more and more...</p>
<p class="callout"><strong>SP: You have recently started working and promoting about WikiTungi Puri. Can you share little more about it? What it will do? How it will benefit the Odia language?</strong><br />SN: With the coming of our group, <a class="external-link" href="https://or.wikipedia.org/s/xgx">WikiTungi Puri</a>, we are going
to organize more workshops, meetups and other outreach programs in and around Puri. But the work will never be limited only to the city. We are always ready to collaborate with the global community. At Puri, We
have plans to design thematic outreach activities in some of the educational
institutions of Puri and we would like to invite them to be part of WikiTungi
Puri. We have plans to bring the "<a class="external-link" href="https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wq/or/%E0%AC%AA%E0%AD%8D%E0%AC%B0%E0%AC%A7%E0%AC%BE%E0%AC%A8_%E0%AC%AA%E0%AD%83%E0%AC%B7%E0%AD%8D%E0%AC%A0%E0%AC%BE">Odia
Wikiquote</a>" live out of the Incubator wiki. We have started working on designing of training materials for the new editors. I have a great feeling
that we are going to have more and more active contributors joining us in the
near future.<br /><br />From the place where see it from, Odia Wikipedia is becoming a pioneer of bringing digital technology for taking our language to a whole new level!</p>

<b>Odia newspaper Sambad carried this featured column of mine yesterday in their Sunday supplement "Sambada Rabibara" on December 6, 2015. </b>
<p> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It sheds light on how important it is to digitize published work and make them available in open standard. Odia Wikisource, a sister project of Odia Wikipedia and a free and open online library, is growing up with more and more Odia books every day. With a vast majority of the native language speakers seeking knowledge online, useful content like available online is going to pay a very crucial role. Be it popular literature or popular science writings, Odia Wikisource is growing up with books of various genre and helping preserve old published works.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify; ">The article was published in <a class="external-link" href="http://mybhubaneswar.com/jagannath-prasad-das-books-odia-wikisource/">Discover Bhubaneswar, a web portal on Odisha</a> on December 4, 2015.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify; ">Odia author and cultural historian Jagannath Prasad Das has recently permitted to re-license under a free license Creative Commons Share-Alike 4.0 or <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0">CC-BY-SA 4.0</a> for 30 volumes of his notable works. The author, popularly known as “J P” or “JP Das” has been honored with Saraswati Samman and Sahitya Academy award for his significant contribution in fiction, historical research of Odisha’s cultural heritage in his books Puri Paintings, Chitra-Pothi and Palm-leaf Miniatures apart from his Odia books “Prathama Purusa” and “Bhabanatha O Anyamane”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">“I made a rather late and hesitant entry into the internet and digital world, but it has since become an integral part of my life. My introduction to digital books was through Srujanika’s digitised version of Purnachandra Odia Bhashakosha – all of 95,00 pages in seven volumes — which was impossible to handle on the writing table. That made me think how wonderful it would be to have all Odia books available on the internet that could be easily accessible to every interested reader”, says Das.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">“As a beginning I decided to put my own writings on the internet. Many of our young Odia writers are are quite active on the social media. I hope they will take the initiative to get more and more Odia books available on the internet with the help of Odia Wikisource”, he adds.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">This contribution opens up a whole new window to his books being accessible to readers for free online. Recently the scanning of the original books were made by the Bhubaneswar based non-profit and science education research organization Srujanika which will now be made available after converting them into text form.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Apart from Dr Das, many other notable individuals like Padma shree Debi Prasanna Pattanayak, Dr Subrat Prusty, Manoj Panda, Bharat Majhi and organisations like Aama Odisha, Manik Biswanath Smrutinyasa have taken the noble step of sharing their works online with free licenses using Odia Wikisource as a platform.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Odia Wikisource, a sister project of the <a href="https://or.wikipedia.org/">Odia Wikipedia</a>, is available online at <a href="http://or.wikisource.org/">or.wikisource.org</a>. There are over 238 books already and all of the books are either under Public Domain or under the above mentioned Creative Commons Share-Alike license which gives the freedom of accessing the works for free, reuse them and even correct if any mistakes found, of course following the guidelines made by the Wikisource community. Currently about 10 Wikisourcers are actively contributing to digitize books of various genre, ranging from science to fiction to even the Odia classics.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">With more authors generously opening up their work online, it feels like they are worried of the books becoming obsolete from the new generation leaving them with no way to learn about their own language and literature. Regional languages like Odia are facing the struggle to selling more books with the growing trend of English-centric education and rat race for jobs. In such a tough situation more popular Odia literary content is certainly going to give a boost to readership and will take the language to more people.</p>

https://cis-india.org/a2k/blogs/chromebook-for-the-project-tiger-in-a-collaboration-with-google-by-wikipedia
<b>Project Tiger is a collaboration project of Wikimedia Foundation with Centre for Internet and Society, Wikimedia India and other affiliates of India to improve and create high-quality content in Indic languages like Odia, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali, Punjabi etc.This project helps the active and experienced Wikipedia editors by supporting them with Internet charges for 6 months and Laptops to 50 volunteers to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.</b>
<p>A diverse list of articles related to art, health, culture, and others are provided for Project Tiger Edit-a-thon to bridge the content gap on Odia Wikipedia, and within these 3 months (March, April & May), volunteers who write the most number of articles in their language Wikipedias with the proper guidelines will be <a class="external-link" href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Project_Tiger_Editathon_2018">awarded prizes</a> worth 3000 INR, 2000 INR and 1000 INR according to their contribution for the month.</p>
<p> I applied for a laptop under this program so that I could contribute more than as usual. I must thank Sailesh Patnaik for guiding me to apply for the laptop. After verifying all the applied list, the final result was out and my username "ssgapu22" was on the 33rd number with other 4 Odia Wikipedia friends.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On 16th March, I received an e-mail from Tito to submit my address to get the laptop. So, I submitted the address of my PG, where I'm staying right now in Bangalore. After 30 minutes, he pinged me on Facebook and called me to the office. So that, I could receive the laptop directly.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I reached there at the CIS-A2K office to receive the laptop. There were Tanveer, Gopala, and Tito and later Ananth joined us. I met them at Mysore for <a href="http://sangramkesharisenapati.blogspot.com/2018/01/TTT-2018.html">TTT 2018</a>. It was like a reunion with them. After a short conversation with Ravi, I did a live unboxing the Chromebook on Facebook, where I was asked about my experience in the Wikimedia movement and about some features of this laptop. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In that box, there was an Acer Chromebook. I have experience with the Windows OS and Linux OS, but this was little different. Since this has the Chrome browser only and all are available online. So, Tito described some of the features of Chromebook to me.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_JW-IEmHIAiwpp0xOm1wCH_GVjJTOORVXraCu7_q2gWDVZhRD23Z4D26aLSN-I8xWqCjUqQ7Uh5T9kxWSBlqjQwiYnmed_TXj0nqoLVZDn17pDH8AnAWazATUcVgThX-vNigNtHV_0oCSM7kRcx3diAODwTHwIOJv8SkDuG6lX81McuBZSkgYxsCqMDF5S5Pw8dXPSDrfFV87WI8Srbrrr3nPFzFTG1b0mbxVgMjXJy0Vx7thJ8Cjo13pPmWAW1EJOY2bwDtDPNyhuHuR-AD3LSgP_QGiYVY04ln-ArRqfkuLaTHI6iT5nPgdgwiuG0CjQlIQLjnRYUZ1vfAcszMbcQX0eFxbNwKC9G9ml0GHksO_0bbdeCPvuohO8qATpfQqChKCE4CowRLA6MOzofcx6u2RroRz8iZ-pbYbe07aF95i6OEMP5rOaZ7f0GYsknDYwPvewxIMEzXYCo948FhGsb6Tcmw7Ybv2SvLu3PuqbTW80xj_fkEuzNpCE_fx17O-e_ClgmmQ_I0FL9IAYx-CsSC4NAod-rMWcQiYdBXCnNRgF8gFg5i-U-wE35sEUeQpSFu2dBeRsbRVmNvF_qi_L-K8sCrOtfN0Rp0Txs0=w491-h654-no" alt="null" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now, I must say something about this laptop. It doesn't have any hard disk drive to store movies. So, all the time we hold it must work and all those works could be done in online. So we could focus more on Wikipedia works. The power backup is outstanding, around 10 to 12 hours. So, the power failure doesn't affect the work. And yes, with a short update of Chrome OS, the Google Playsote activated so we could download the play store apps directly.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">By getting this laptop, I started working on this and all those online works are done easily. Previously, when I was using other laptops, the works took longer than as usual since the slow processing, but here that problem avoided. Finally, this laptop would definitely help me with the Wikipedia works. Since I'm working on the #1WikiYear project on Odia Wikipedia and Wikisource on a particular subject after contributing to my #1WikiYear project, I also write an article for the Project Tiger <a class="external-link" href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Supporting_Indian_Language_Wikipedias_Program/Contest/Topics/Odia">from the list</a>.</p>

KIIT University is a world class university spread over 25 sq. km. of land accommodating 20 sprawling wi-fi campuses with 10 million sq.ft. built up area. The university has 25 constituent schools offering more than 100 programmes. Being accredited by NAAC of UGC and NBA of AICTE, KIIT has 20,000 students pursuing under graduate and post graduate studies in the fields of Engineering, Computer Application, Management, Rural Management, Law, Biotechnology, MBBS, M.D., BDS, Nursing, Fashion Technology, Cinema & Media Studies and Languages. KIIT stands out as one of the finest universities in India declared under section 3 of the UGC Act of 1956. KIIT educational conglomerate is unique in offering a wide spectrum of academic programmes from kindergarten to postgraduate level, earning it a place in the Limca Book of Records.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Wikipedia has a critical stand in academia when it comes to peer academic research. But on the other side students ofter access and use Wikipedia for their assignment work despite of the non acceptance of Wikipedia content by the teacher community. The primary reason of Wikipedia's factual errors in many Indic related articles being Wikipedia's low contribution from the global south needs more contribution. Academicians and subject experts who are in charge of building the infrastructure of providing free knowledge to everyone often were stuck because of this setback.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">This led to an conjugation of subject experts and Wikimedia contributor communities to set up a system called Wikipedia Education Program (WEP) where editing, correcting and enhancing Wikipedia articles become part of the curriculum.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">To begin with the students in different schools at KIIT University the local Wikipedia community with the support from CIS-A2K is going to conduct classroom Wikipedia workshops to pilot Wikipedia contribution. KIIT University would be one of world's few universities to pilot student Wikipedia contribution as part oftheir curricula in any regional language.</p>

<b>The works of bureaucrat-turned-writer from Odisha, Jagannath Prasad Das, can be accessed free online after the digitisation process is complete.</b>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">The article was published in <a class="external-link" href="http://odishasuntimes.com/2015/12/05/works-of-odisha-litterateur-jp-das-digitised-available-online-free/">Odisha Sun Times</a> on December 5, 2015.</p>
<hr />
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Saraswati Samman and Sahitya Academy award winner, prominent writer, former IAS officer and cultural historian, popularly known as JP Das, has recently re-licensed 30 of his notable works under a free license called CC-by-SA 4.0. This opens up a whole new window to his books being accessible to readers for free online.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Recently, the scanning of the original books was made by the Bhubaneswar based non-profit and science education research organisation Srujanika which will now be made available after converting them into text form.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Not just Dr Das, many other notable individuals like Padma Shree Debi Prasanna Pattanayak, Manoj Panda, Dr Subrat Prusty, Bharat Majhi and organisations like Aama Odisha, Manik Biswanath Smrutinyasa that have come forward in the past to make their books available online using Odia Wikisource as a platform. Aama Odisha’s founder Soumya Ranjan Patnaik in a public gathering last year had permitted for relicensing and digitizing 19 volumes of Odia books published by Aama Odisha.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">“I made a rather late and hesitant entry into the internet and digital world, but it has since become an integral part of my life. My introduction to digital books was through Srujanika’s digitised version of Purnachandra Odia Bhashakosha – all of 95,00 pages in seven volumes — which was impossible to handle on the writing table. That made me think how wonderful it would be to have all Odia books available on the internet that could be easily accessible to every interested reader,” says Das.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">“As a beginning, I decided to put my own writings on the internet. Many of our young Odia writers are quite active on the social media. I hope they will take the initiative to get more and more Odia books available on the internet with the help of Odia Wikisource,” he adds.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Notably, Odia Wikisource is a sister project of the Odia Wikipedia and is available at or.wikisource.org on the internet. As a free online Odia-language library, it houses over 119 books already and all of the books are either under public domain or under the above mentioned creative commons share-alike license which gives the freedom of accessing the works for free, reuse them and even correct if any mistakes found, of course following the guidelines made by the Wikisource community. Currently, about 10 Wikisourcers are actively contributing to digitise books of various genres ranging from science to fiction to even the Odia classics.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">With more authors generously opening up their work online, it feels like they are worried of the books becoming obsolete from the new generation leaving them with no way to learn about their own language and literature. Regional languages like Odia are facing the struggle to selling more books with the growing trend of English-centric education and rat race for jobs. In such a tough situation, more popular Odia literary content is certainly going to give a boost to readership and will take the language to more people, he expressed.</p>
