  Dear All,

This is following Jassim's excellent suggestion of updating, writing, 
intervening in entries on South Asian culture, history, geography, 
biography in Wikipedia, as well as on other matters that might be of 
interest to people on this list.

I endorse this suggestion, and perhaps this list could be a forum where 
areas that are weak in Wikipedia can be listed and discussed, and 
suggestions of how to improve them made.

I have found Wikipedia very useful, but recognize that it too is under a 
great deal of pressure to amend the way it is sustained. People on this 
list would be ideally the kind who should get their foot in through the 
wikipedia door (or should I say portal) and make their presence felt, 
while the time and space to do that remains,

Any takers?

Shuddha
