<p style="text-align: justify; ">The community will be training students and a group of six faculty members at KISS who will coordinate the digitization of these books. “Collaborative efforts and open access to knowledge repositories will enrich our language and culture,” said linguist Padmashree Dr. Debiprasanna Pattanayak as he inagurated the event. Dr. Pattanayak and Odia language researcher Subrat Prusty from the Institute of Odia Studies and Research also re-licensed three books based on their research on Odia language and cultural influence of the language on other societies under the same license. KISS is going to digitize some of these books and make them available on Odia Wikisource.</p>

<blockquote class="quoted" style="text-align: justify; ">We hope that more authors will come forward and re-release their books under CC-BY-SA license. The Odia community is excited to see or.wikisource.org go live. A few Wikipedians are even interested in typing their favorite free licensed books to make them available on Wikisource. I believe it’ll be challenging to train the KISS students to type and proof-read the written texts. In the CISA2K’s <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge/Draft_Work_plan_July_2014_-_June_2015/Odia_Wikisource_as_OER" title="India Access To Knowledge/Draft Work plan July 2014 - June 2015/Odia Wikisource as OER">draft plan</a>, the goal to have the number of editors seems overestimated. The students need to have some knowledge about Wikimedia and how it works in general before they start working. We hope that the books will be digitized properly and in coming days more users will join us in the process as we will have more free books in Odia Wikisource. I appeal to the Odia people to be a part of the Odia Wikimedia community and make Odia Wikisource a successful project, we need all the time you can devote. :-) <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ansumang" title="User:Ansumang">Ansuman Giri</a>, Odia Wikipedian</blockquote>

<b>The Centre for Internet & Society's Access to Knowledge team in collaboration with "The Intellects" organized a seminar in New Delhi on December 14, 2014. Subhashish Panigrahi gave a talk.</b>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">The seminar was on the <a href="http://cis-india.org/news/relevance-of-bhagabat-tungi-in-evolution-of-odia-language">Relevance of Bhagabat Tungi in the evolution of Odia language from Buddha era to digital age</a>. After attending the event one of the participants Pankajmala Sarangi took great interest in <a class="external-link" href="http://cis-india.org/openness/blog/odia-wikisource-goes-live">Odia Wikisource</a> which was then an incubator project.

These Wikimedians, a Delhi based group The Intellects and CIS-A2K collaboratively conducted a workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">The Intellect's president Debendra Rout addressed the participants and broadly spoke about the goal of the workshop and long term plans in Delhi. Both the Wikilibrarians shared their experience on Odia Wikisource. The workshop started with self introduction of the participants followed by screening of a documentary "Odia: Silalekharu Mobile".</p>

<b>Odia Wikisource, a sister project of Odia Wikipedia and a free online Odia language library, will celebrate its first anniversary in Odisha capital tomorrow.</b>
<p>The article was published in <a class="external-link" href="http://odishasuntimes.com/2015/10/25/odia-wikisource-to-celebrate-its-first-anniversary-tomorrow/">Odisha Sun Times</a> on October 25, 2015.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img src="https://cis-india.org/home-images/OdiaWikisource.jpg" alt="null" class="image-inline" title="Odia Wikisource" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Scheduled to be held at the Institute on Management of Agricultural Extension (IMAGE) in Siripura at 5 PM, the open to all event would welcome everyone taking interest in Odia library movement in particular and Odia language in general, as per a press release issued by Odia Wikisource.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It may be noted that the project, available online at or.wikisource.org, went live on October 20, 2014 after being incubated for over two years. It not only provides free and open access to readers to text that are out of copyright or available under free license, but also allows them to contribute in either digitizing copyright-free text or correcting mistakes made by others.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Wikisource is different than Wikipedia as the former is published writing republished online where on Wikipedia it is more of aggregating information published elsewhere in an encyclopaedic manner,” explained Subas Chandra Rout, a long time Wikimedian.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All the contributors to the project are volunteers and are fondly called ‘uikiali’ in Odia. These volunteers follow certain guidelines to check through the content digitized by others to make sure there is no copyrighted text posing copyright violation, correct typing and other grammatical mistakes and incorrect attributions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Authors and copyright holders are also encouraged to provide permission in re-licensing their work under free licenses like CC-BY/CC-by-SA licenses so that some of their content becomes available online and fill the large gap in online availability of Odia books to some extent.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Last year, the Wikimedia community in Odisha did a remarkable job in bringing in as many as 141 books from multiple authors relicensed under the above mentioned licenses. We, as an institution, played a role in reaching out to many authors and convincing them for a small contribution to the society,” said the Centre for Internet and Society’s Programme Officer Subhashish Panigrahi.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“There is a great dearth of Odia books online. I try to buy some time from personal and office time to continue my contribution. I started from an all time Odia classic ‘Chhamana Athaguntha’ by Fakir Mohan Senapati,” said Pankajmala Sarangi, the most active contributor to the project.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Last year, the Wikimedia community in Odisha did a remarkable job in bringing as many as 141 books from multiple authors relicensed under the above mentioned licenses where we, the Centre for Internet and Society’s Access To Knowledge program, as an institution, could play a role in reaching out to many authors and convincing them for a small contribution to the society.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pankajmala Sarangi, the most active contributor to the project elaborated saying, there is a great dearth of Odia books online. I try to buy some time from personal and office time to continue my contribution. After all, I started from an all-time Odia classic “<a href="https://or.wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Chha_mana_atha_guntha.pdf">Cha’mana Athaguntha</a>” by <a href="https://or.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fakir_Mohan_Senapati">Fakir Mohan Senapati</a>”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;" class="callout">“The Odia language classics could now be read from phones, tablets and of course from computers”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Many important books that are out of copyright are making their appearance on the Odia Wikisource. “Wikisource is different than Wikipedia as the former is published writing republished online whereas on Wikipedia it is more of aggregating information published elsewhere in an encyclopaedic manner”, says Dr. Subas Chandra Rout, a long time Wikimedian.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Odia Wikisource’s administrator Mrutyunjaya Kar welcomes everyone taking interest in Odia library movement in particular and Odia language in general to join this event that is being held at the Institute on Management of Agricultural Extension (IMAGE), Siripura, Bhubaneswar at 5 pm tomorrow.</p>

No publisherpraskrishnaOpennessOdia WikipediaAccess to Knowledge2014-12-09T14:09:03ZEventOdia Wikisource has a new Wikisourcer, and he is the youngest in the Odia Wikimedia community!
https://cis-india.org/openness/blog-old/kisorachandrananachampu-on-odia-wikisource
<b>Prateek Pattanaik (User:Shrijagannatha on Odia Wikisource) is a young researcher of Odia literature and Odissi music. He has not just digitized as many as 54 Odia-language poetry dating early 18th century but has also annotated, both poetic and prosaic translation in his blogs “Sri Jagannatha” and “Utkal Sangeet”. He has also brought a complete book “Kisora chandranana champu” on Odia Wikisource. A recent entrant into the Odia Wikimedia community, Prateek is also the youngest Odia Wikimedian. He has also digitized 18-19th century 54 poem written by various poets.</b>
<p class="ctl"><em>Right after Prateek finished his first digitization of an entire book “<a class="external-link" href="http://or.wikisource.org/wiki/କିଶୋରଚନ୍ଦ୍ରାନନ୍ଦ_ଚମ୍ପୂ">Kishorachandranana Champu</a>” by Baladeba Ratha (1779-1845 AD) on the Odia Wikisource (<a class="external-link" href="http://or.wikisource.org"><span class="external-link">or.wikisource.org</span></a>), Subhashish Panigrahi caught up with Prateek asking him about his passion for Odia literature and Odissi music.</em></p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>Subhashish Panigrahi (SP)</strong>: Hi Prateek, please tell little bit about yourself?<br /><strong>Prateek Pattanaik (PP)</strong>: I live among the pristine hills of Damanjodi, in the district of Koraput, Odisha, with my parents. My mother, Mrs.Pallabi Mohapatra, is a teacher in Delhi Public School, Damanjodi, where I study. My father, Mr. Dipak Kumar Pattanaik, is lecturer in Botany in the Government College, Koraput. Currently I'm studying in 11<sup>th</sup> standard in the Science Stream.</blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: What influenced you to take so much interest in Odia literature and Odissi music?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: When I was young, my grandfather, Dr. P. C. Mohapatra, would tell me bedtime stories that recounted the exploits of Lord Jagannatha – tales about King Indradyumna, Chodaganga Deva, Jayadeva, the Panchasakha; those of Dasia Bauri, Salabega; about how Lord Jagannatha would wander hopelessly in hunger, banished by Lakshmi; how he would chase the eggplant-plucking lady, enchanted by her rendition of the Gita Govinda. Those tales fascinated my imagination, and attracted me towards the Lord. And thus it began, my endless journey of discovering the infinite cult that surrounded the smiling Gods at Puri.<br /><br />As a kid I brought a triad made of neem wood from Puri. I would worship them, and dress them in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beshas_of_Jagannath">Beshas</a>, costumes of Lord Jagannatha, using thermocole and paints- I smeared sandalwood paste on them and covered them with tiny blankets during winter. My mother inspired me – she was the typical Odia homemaker – from making “<em>Pana”</em> on the “<em>Makara Sankranti” to </em>making 'pithas', a large variety of traditional delicacies. And I would offer all of them to my Lords. She made herbal oils for my Lords when they were ill with fever. She would never say no to me no matter how unrealistic my demands. She tried her hand even at making the traditional “<em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattachitra">patta</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattachitra">chitra</a></em><em>”</em> canvases for me to draw.<br /><br />During my summer vacations, I would unconditionally rush to Koraput to my grandparents, and I still do. My Grandmother, Mrs. Kanak Lata Sabat, who is an Odia-language teacher, taught me the Odia alphabet when I was very young. My father would bring me pictures of Lord Jagannatha from the Temple stall outside the Puri Temple. I became famous in my entire family for my ability to tell them apart without seeing their name. I was stubborn – I told him to buy those Odia books even when I did not know how to read. And those were the first books I read in Odia- filled with vivid descriptions of the Beshas of the Lord; with simple lines from the Odia Bhagabata to complex lines from medieval poets. When I asked my grandmother to tell me who was this man called Upendra Bhanja, whom the books praised no end, she revealed to me the master he was, and told me about his unbeatable command over the words he spoke.<br /><br />I grew up to being automatically attracted to Odissi Music – which I would hear amidst songs of the Gita Govinda in local Temples, and <em>Patachitra</em>s- filled in the soaring structures of the Puri Temple. I myself figured out how to do those paintings, and began by singing songs of Bhajan Samrat Bhikari Bal. Later, I heard of age-old classics from my grandma again – songs which she had learnt while in the third standard- “<em>Ki Shobha go Kunje”</em>, “<em>Galani ta Gala Katha</em>” and so on. I learnt them myself, and began going to my sir who would explain to me the nuances of Odissi Classical Music.<br /><br />When I was in ninth standard, the Jagannatha temple of Koraput came forward to use my PowerPoint presentations on the Jagannatha cult that I had made them for my pleasure, during my leisure time. They took them and printed them, and made a public exhibition. It was praised no end. I became somewhat of a child-size know-it-all of the Jagannatha cult, but I saw there was still more to discover.<br /></blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: How you started learning about “<em>Champu</em>”?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: The word “<em>Champu”</em> itself attracted me. It had a distinct ring to it, an alien-sounding word that was never used in real life. My father told me it was a song in which each line started with the same letter. I asked him to show it to me. He could not. He himself had not seen more than a single song. And when the truth dawned on me that it was not 'a' song- it was a collection of 34 songs, after the 34 letters of the Odia alphabet, I had to get my hands on it. Fortunately, the “<a href="http://oaob.nitrkl.ac.in/view/title/">Open Access to Oriya Books</a>” (OAOB) project by Srujanika had tons of Odia books digitized and hosted on the website http://oaob.nitrkl.ac.in, and I could finally behold what it was. I was amazed – I ran my eyes down the '<em>Ka</em>' song,and read “<em>Ka</em>-<em>Ka</em>-<em>Ka</em>-<em>Ka”</em>. What talent! My god, who wrote this? Kabisurya. Kabisurya who? Kabisurya Baladeba Ratha. I discovered the man and was similarly amazed by folktales of his talent.<br /><br />When I saw the 'Ga' song was the same song my Grandma loved – I was again amused. I knew that all the while! Above each song, it was written '<em>Raga </em>so and so'. So all of these could be sung. But how could I learn how to sing them? A single recorded CD, from the busstand taught me. In a year, I could sing it entirely. I understood the depth of the lines from the simple commentary below them, and was disappointed by how less known they were in this day and age. I thought what I could do – I sung them at the temple during the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratha_Yatra_%28Puri%29"><em>Ratha Jatra</em></a>, and they were an instant hit! People longed to hum those ancient tunes. But they could not. These songs were outdated, no one sung them except a few maestros of Odissi Classical Music, and no one could comprehend them. But people loved them. They did not know what they meant, exactly but they sure did get the feeling. And that was what mattered.<br /></blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: From spending your entire childhood to creating two blogs with so much annotation on these early writings, and using social media to popularize them, to bringing them on Wikisource, what made this leap?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: One fine day, it struck me that the same way I made PowerPoint slides, I could make something digital. Why not a website which anyone can see? Wouldn't that breathe new life into the traditional melodies? Good. And so over a span of two long years, I typed out the entire <em>Champu</em> and created two websites; Shri Jagannatha (<a href="http://shrijagannatha.wordpress.com/">shrijagannatha.wordpress.com</a>) for the Jagannatha cult, and later, Utkal Sangeet (<a href="http://utkalsangeet.wordpress.com/">utkalsangeet.wordpress.com</a>) for the classical songs. The Utkal Sangeet project was a great learning experience, I used tags, so that you could find any song, view it on any device, sort songs by Raga, Tala, Poet, Book, etc. I translated songs, and uploaded their recordings as well.</blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: Did you ever share your work with other fellow researchers? You must have struggled to find these resources, isn't it?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: U.S. Researcher in Ethnomusicology at U.C. Davis, Dr. David Dennen AKA 'David Uncle',was the first and only person who helped me. He himself has submitted his PhD Thesis on the Kishora Chandrananda Champu, from villages to research centers. He sent me tons of research books in digital form, painfully scanning them himself only for me, from locations like Australia and America. None from Odisha even assisted; the people at the Odisha state museum refused to let a child like me to see their manuscripts, and none of the research institutions even responded in an email. David uncle constantly inspired me to carry on further, not being swayed away. He encouraged me constantly, and he is as important to this project, on the Champu, as my very own parents.<br /><br />Then in February 2015, it struck me that I could use social networking to propagate the richness of the Cult at Puri – the grandeur in literature, dance, music, art, sculpture, food and all. I started a new Twitter handle @<a href="http://twitter.com/shrijagannatha">shrijagannatha</a>, and linked it with my site. Now the handle has 820 followers within 6 months. Many Twitter users have been very appreciative, and they became family now. From the Grandfather @nidhi_budha to the 'untimely gourd' @akala_kushmanda, they post random tweets about Odisha to digitization of the Odia script, with which I struggled greatly at the beginning. This soul, devoted to a similar cause as me, was @subhapa, Subhasish Panigrahi, an active volunteer in the Odia Wikipedia, one of the founding fathers. After months, Persuaded by the Wikimedians, I too contributed the entire text of the Kishorachandrananda Champu to the Odia Wikisource by using my Utkal Sangeet project. It is a collaborative project, which will blossom healthily. Since so many people visit the Wikimedia projects, my small contribution to this free online library could probably quench their literary thirst.</blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: What are your plans to expand your work on Wikisource?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: In the future, I plan to make my site even more accessible for the layman. I have a few ideas as of now, to make the ideas reach out to everyone, even someone as young as me. I want to be an active, useful member of this online digital movement for Odia language, and go on with my task forever.</blockquote>
<p class="ctl"> </p>
<blockquote class="quoted"><strong>SP</strong>: Thanks Prateek for taking time to share such an inspiring and insightful story. Would you like to add more about expanding project for digitizing such valuable literature?<br /><strong>PP</strong>: As for my future plans, I would like to type out other such works of <em>Kabisurjya</em> Baladeba Ratha, like his “<em>Ratnakara Champu”</em>, “<em>Premodaya Champu”</em> and even the satirical “<em>Hasyakallola</em>”. I would definitely contribute the same to Wikisource. The books being rare, they may be lost if not saved. I would like to translate the Kishora Chandrananda Champu, the main one, into English in its entirety – word by word, retaining its true essence so that the Western Audience and even people of their states can understand the marvel it is. Now, I'm researching on various commentaries and references so that I can write my own. The form itself is rare, and more so, such an intricately interwoven part of the typical 'Odia' identity that it cannot be ignored. Let the world glance upon the talents of (Upendra) Bhanja and Kabisurya (Baladeba Ratha) and identify that a small, peaceful state in the East has been the birthplace for such great art.<br />Thanks!</blockquote>

https://cis-india.org/openness/blog-old/hastac-january-31-2014-subhashish-panigrahi-odia-wikipedia
<b>Odia Wikipedia has carved its mark as the largest online encyclopedia in Odia language that is edited by a volunteer editor community.</b>
<hr />
<p style="text-align: justify; ">This was <a class="external-link" href="http://www.hastac.org/blogs/psubhashish/2014/01/31/odia-wikipedia-three-years-active-contributions-gives-life-ten-years-ol">published by HASTAC</a> on January 31, 2014.</p>
<hr />
<p style="text-align: justify; ">By 29th of January this year it is 10 year old and 5000 articles rich. Though this was started as one of the first four Indic language Wikipedias. In 2011 there were only 550 articles with practically no contributors. The initial Wikipedians struggled to reach out to more people. Luckily, with more people coming on the Internet – primarily on social media platforms, collaboration became easier. Odia Wikipedia’s facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/OdiaWiki">page</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/OdiaWiki">group</a> became the social gateway to get used to working within the Odia language. This is one of the languages which has very little online presence when it comes to having content as Unicode text. Many people still struggle with the outdated pirated operating systems installed in their computers which added more hurdles in the way of all the community led Wikipedia outreach programs. There has been more developments in recent days in language input and online contribution in Odia. More people started searching for online content using Odia in Unicode. This is where Odia Wikipedia played a crucial role in promoting a massive growth in content which is reflected in the readership. Monthly page views which remained consistently low over the years started <a href="http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/SummaryOR.htm">growing from less than 1000 to more than 400,000</a> and at times hitting the 500,000 mark. This is the highest among all the websites that have Odia content. With a variety of new projects and more contributors than ever, Wikipedia Odia happily celebrated its its 10th anniversary over two days. Odia Wikipedians gathered in two different educational institutes; <a href="http://www.kiss.ac.in/">Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences</a> in Bhubaneswar on the 28th of January and <a href="http://www.iimc.nic.in/branches-dhenkanal.html">Indian Institute of Mass Communication</a> in Dhenkanal on the 29th.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify; ">Day 1</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">First day of Odia Wikipedia 10 began with the traditional <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chhena_Poda">Chhena poda</a> by noted linguist Padmashree Dr. Debiprasanna Patnaik. Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) has recently collaborated with The Centre for Internet and Society for the resource gathering, documentation and archival of 62 tribal communities of Odisha and neighboring eastern Indian states and initiating Wikipedia projects in the indigenous tribal languages. The first few phase of the workshop brought about 15 students pursuing their masters in Arts, Science and Commerce disciplines and 10 faculty members.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">This project also will also dovetail into the <a href="http://www.mle-india.net/search/label/Bernard%20van%20Leer%20Foundation">Mother Tongue based Multilingual Lab</a> that has been set up in the institute to foster educational materials in tribal languages. Dr. Patnaik spoke to these contributors about the native languages and the importance of documenting language and cultural heritage online. Subrat Prusty, General Secretary of Janasammilani and founding member of <a href="http://www.odiabiswabidyalaya.org/view-content/12/about-us.html">Odia Biswabidyalaya</a> gave a talk on the factors that have diminished the native languages and how collaborative efforts could revive dying languages through a 5000 word free-license dictionary in Odia. With the audio recording of Dr. Patnaik introducing himself, Odia Wikipedians inaugurated the <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Voice_intro_project">Voice intro project</a> as the first Indic language project. Odia Wikipedians interacted with the students and teachers at KISS to get their inputs on the kind of knowledge imparted by introducing Wikipedia editing. Later these will streamline the process of writing to the linguistic team for pledging for the classical language status of Odia.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify; ">Day 2</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">The second day of Odia Wikipedia 10 was celebrated in the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC) Dhenkanal campus . Students who had participated in the <a href="https://or.wikipedia.org/wiki/ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ:କର୍ମଶାଳା/ଢେଙ୍କାନାଳ/୪">series of Odia Wikipedia workshops</a> earlier in the year took part in this event. Sampad Mohapatra, a TV and print media journalist inaugurated the event by lighting <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diya_%28light%29">Dipa</a> and cutting a birthday Chenapoda. Mohapatra shared his experiences on how the entire media industry relies on Wikipedia for collecting information and how contribution in regional languages will benefit the students through more job availability in the regional media. Professor Dr. Mrinal Chatterjee who heads the institution shared the way accessing knowledge is slowly moving to internet based search. He discussed strategies of how bringing more online content in regional languages will help the academia and the students. Usha Padhee, Secretary of Mass Education Department, Odisha Government distributed awards to the top Wikipedia contributors. She later presented on the role of media in educating society and Open Educational Resources in new tools of imparting knowledge.</p>

<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>The Odia Wikipedia is turning 13 this June 3. To celebrate this long time of the editor community's tireless effort to make it to the largest Odia-language online encyclopedia an event is being organised in Odisha' capital Bhubaneswar. Centre for Internet and Society's Access To Knowledge (CIS-A2K) is proudly sponsoring for this event. Subhashish Panigrahi and Rahmanuddin Shaik are representing CIS at this event.</b>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Over 20 Wikipedians from various corners of India are participating for a public gathering that is planned on June 3 at the Institute of Physics at 5 pm. A day-long internal meetup for the community in the presence of Wikimedia India and CIS-A2K has been planned that focuses on raising consensus for policy and guidelines for Odia Wikipedia, and planning for the activities ahead in the light of successes and learning from failures from the past.</p>
