by Subhashish Panigrahi — published Aug 27, 2013 — last modified Sep 05, 2013 09:24 AM — filed under: , , , ,

Recently the Centre for Internet and Society's Access To Knowledge Programme (CIS-A2K) in collaboration with the Konkani department of Goa University organized a four-day Wikipedia workshop for MA, Konkani language students.
