Orphaned non-free image File:Ministry of External Affairs India Logo.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Ministry of External Affairs India Logo.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 14:40, 29 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

speedy

edit

Sindhu Education Foundation clearly indicates significance, as a trust running multiple notable schools. Remeber, signifcance to pass speedy is much les than actual notability--but it would probably be held notable also. In addition, schools may not be nominated for deletion as A7. High schools & collegeswith a real existence are almost always considered notable; others are redirected to the locality or School board , etc.

Please read WP:Deletion policy and WP:CSD before doing further deletion nominations. DGG ( talk ) 13:34, 28 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Supporting Indian Wikipedia Program resource distribution

edit

In 2017 - 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program (Code name: Project Tiger) will:

(a) Support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and
(b) Sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.

If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.
