Grants:TPS/Innocentbunny/WorldHindiConference
Proposed participation
[edit ]Hindi Wikipedia has been severely suffering from lack of quality editors and readers. The World Hindi Conference is the biggest event of the Hindi language, held every three years, aimed at promoting the Hindi language at the Global stage, having Scholars, writers, Universities, MNCs, and other educational and cultural institutions, participating in it. We plan, to participate in the upcoming World Hindi Conference to represent Hindi Wikipedia, as It gives an important opportunity for us to promote Hindi Wikipedia among large numbers of individuals and groups with similar interests from India, Mauritius and around the world. It also gives us an opportunity to interact with them in prospects for possible co-operative agreements. Also, since this conference is about to be held in Mauritius, it also gives us a unique opportunity to popularise Hindi Wikipedia in Mauritius and search for possible cooperative agreements with organizations working for the Hindi language, within Mauritius.
Goal and expected impact
[edit ]The severe lack of concent, quality editors and the lack of readership due to lack of awareness among Hindi-speakers is a prime concern for the Hindi Wikipedia community. It was a matter extensively discussed in our last Hindi Wikipedia Conference. Also, the World Hindi Conference, being the largest event of the Hindi language, has all individuals and organizations, from around the world, related to Hindi, participating in it, and Hence, Hindi Wikipedia should definitely be represented there. By participating in this event, our prime goal is to achieve the following:
- To increase awareness about Wikipedia among Hindi-speakers, and especially among the top strata of Hindi scholars and institutions, who would be present there.
- With our participation, we wish to increase our readership and hopefully add more quality editors to our community, thus strengthening the Hindi Wikipedia Community and the Global Wikimedia Movement.
- To hopefully get leads for partnership with other organizations or institutions to increase quality content and readership of Hindi Wikipedia.
