Thanks , please spread the word atleast in hindi,ml,kannada,tamil,telegu wikipedia also -- Tinu Cherian - 16:55, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Date and Venue

I have just proposed for first weekend of July so that we can plan and attract maximum participation. Please discuss date and venue here for consensus -- Tinu Cherian - 04:25, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, at least for me travelling to the outskirts of the city would be difficult... anyway travelling to and fro and timing could be an issue, if the location is at the outskirts. However that's my opinion. I agree with SBC-YPR's suggestion of meeting at some public place. A possible location could be the CCD near Jyothi Niwas College which is IMO a very comfortable meeting place. --Srikeit 18:12, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I am also more OK with having this within the city. CCD near Jyothi Niwas College is a good suggestion but is it going to crowded on a sunday evening? If our meeting crowd is "not that big " :) , I am also willing happy to host this at my apartment in Marathahalli. -- Tinu Cherian - 02:26, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Tinu, there are seven people already - how big is "not that big"? ;-) Anyhow, let's try for a consensus - what area of Bangalore do we want to meet up in? Place Support below any of the following with your signature, based on what would be easiest for you to reach. We can narrow it down further from there. Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 07:32, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I am open to meeting anywhere so long as it is not within city limits. I don't mind Hebbal, or even Devanahalli.--Rsrikanth05 (talk) 13:16, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]


    • North
Yeshwatpur/Tumkur Rd. will need a lift -- PlaneMad|YakYak 17:02, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • South
Support. --Rsrikanth05 (talk)
Support. -- कोल्हापुरी (talk)
Support. --Gurubrahma (talk) 17:36, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support.--Naveenpf (talk) 02:23, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • East
Support. SBC-YPR (talk)
Support. My residence is at South East -- Tinu Cherian - 07:51, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support. My residence is near Tinu's place, I guess. --GDibyendu (talk) 17:35, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • West
    • Central
OK with Central too.--GDibyendu (talk) 17:35, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Will prefer central, though can and will come along otherwise too Godof86 (talk) 05:30, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't make it up on July first week. Anyone is on another week on July? Probably on July second week--Anoopan 16:33, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Just a quick question. Can everybody please give a relative position of where you are? This would make it easier to decide a place. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:12, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would prefer if it was on a Saturday rather than a Sunday. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 17:22, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

These days, many people work on Saturday also. Not me, though :) I am OK with Saturday also.--GDibyendu (talk) 17:35, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess, I could say I'm pretty much okay with places along Outer Ring Road. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 18:13, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My residence is very near to the Outer ring road, Marathahalli.I am Ok for both sat/sunday but I believe more people may be able to attend on a Sunday. -- Tinu Cherian - 01:59, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Now that most people prefer South/East, I am happy to host this at my residance at Marathahalli , unless somebody has any other suggestions/objections. Regarding the dates, I think more people will be comfortable with Sunday, July 5th based on offline discussions. For those who arent able to make on this day, we will have this exercise more often hereafter. So shall I lock for Marathahalli, July 5th 2009 , Sunday evening 4:00 - 5:00 PM ? Thoughts ? -- Tinu Cherian - 16:22, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Cool with me. I suggest you extend the duration of the meeting by a couple of hours - I seriously doubt we'll be able to wind up in an hour :) Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 14:17, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No problems with me either. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 14:37, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No problems if turns out to be a late night party too :P -- Tinu Cherian - 16:22, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I may be able to make it for the Wikimeet in Bangalore. Presently, I am in Delhi but I will be coming to Banglaore around 5th July on some official work. Pl keep me posted of the details on my e-mail<nvv_char@yahoo.com>. Thanks.--Nvvchar (talk) 10:12, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I will be soon droping a mail to the attendees listed below (If your e-mail option is enabled) with exact location and direction details. If anybody else Drop a mail to contact me . Waiting to meet all of you there. -- Tinu Cherian - 14:34, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have fun guys, do take a swam of photos and share them with the rest of us, who arent fortunate enough to attend. Tinu, I trust some of the editors on the Kannada Wikipedia, and other seasoned Wiki editors such as User:Sundar, User:Pamri and User:HPN have been intimated. AreJay (talk) 04:24, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the above 3 were also informed. -- Tinu Cherian - 04:33, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Any Hindi editors coming, excpet for me? Also, as for the late-night party... I have college next morning. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:19, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
