Thank you Lucas. Thanks for your work to improve LinguaLibre project and for encouraging others. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 22:25, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello Titodutta,

Same, I noticed your efforts on LinguaLibre:Stats : congratulation and thank you for your push on Bengali. That's impressive and a solid ground upon which to build learning apps in years to come. :) Yug (talk) 14:26, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks Yug. Hopefully these files will be helpful for some.. Regards. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 17:28, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Tamil ?

Hello, this Tamil frequency study (2008) came my way. I don't think of any place where to store this right now aside of wikipedia maybe ? It would be interesting to consider the creation of an "Indian Subcontinent Languages" focus group and portal/project page, to create a group dynamic and maybe some collaboration with leading academic institutions in the field. Yug (talk) 10:35, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

• Absolutely Yug. This sounds interesting. Perhaps we can think of something similar to WikiProject concept on Wikipedia, Wikidata etc? --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 09:58, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Github

Hi there, I'am temporarily taking over the Github LinguaLibre group. I'am looking for an Indian relay to join in, someone who can smooth on-boarding for future Indian developers wishing to contribute. The task would be to be the Indian co-"owner" of the Group, and to grant access to Indian wikimedian-developer as "members" on the basis of trust. So it needs to know the Indian community a bit. I do it for French/Westerners. Are you or do you know someone who could be interested by this role of co-owner for Indians ? Yug (talk) 19:53, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Titodutta, I invited you to the Github LL group as member. As I checked out your profile, you don't seems to be a developer nor familiar with Github. So it may be more relevant to keep you as a simple "member". Your knowledge of Indian community and its potential volunteer developers will still be valuable knowledge to lead some onboarding as needed. India as such linguistic diversity to preserve, It's an interesting direction to develop in coming years ;) Yug (talk) 08:04, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

PS: I'am thinking about Wikimedian Tshrinivasan as a potential Github Indian co-owner. He contributed to LL back in 2017 and is very familiar with NLP, Github, and relevant R&D. Yug (talk) 08:07, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

• Shrini (that's his nickname) would be a good choice, he is a good friend of mine. Let me know if you want me to connect. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 12:17, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello Titodutta,

Your Shrini = my Tshrinivasan right ?

I create new userbox template for your userpage. Try this out ! {{user records-ben|username=Titodutta}} ;) Yug (talk) 20:48, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Ya, ya, Tshrinivasan :) --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 22:08, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

I contacted him and made it a member on Github around mid January indeed ;) Yug (talk) 22:21, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

• That's a good involvement. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 22:37, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Minor English help

Hello Titodutta,
As a French speaker my English is not always sufficient. Could you help me to find a better pagename for Help:Convert_audios? ? Would "Help:Converting audio formats" be correct and better ? Yug (talk) 20:30, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

• Yes, "Help:Converting audio formats" or "Help:Converting audio" sound better. See naming convention at c:Help:Converting video or c:Help:Converting. "?" is also not needed. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 11:36, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Done Great, thank you. Yug (talk) 11:04, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Users by language

Hello Titodutta,
WikiLucas00 and myself started to tag contributors' userpage with the {{User records-fra}}, {{User records-deu}}, {{User records-mar}}, and other variants of the template, and usertalk's pages with a Welcome template + small custom message. This is a first stone for the coming per-language-family community building. I question this approach. Aren't we French admins contributors taking up a meaningful team building opportunities from you and active Indian contributors ? WikiLucas00 and myself have agreed to "slow down (but continue)" on this action to allow Indian contributors to welcome new Indian contributors. Personally I use this Recent Non-Audio with a shortcut provided by the Wikigadget Recent Non-audio to notice new arrivals. Feel free to discuss this welcoming issue with us, we will help as we can. Yug (talk) 11:24, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

• User creation log is another option. I added a few welcome messages on user talk pages earlier. I'll welcome new users. I asked Subodh Kulkrani to add Marathi userboxes, which he has started to do. I'll ask User:Nitesh Gill to do the same for Punjabi. Regards. --টিটো দত্ত (Titodutta) (কথা) 18:51, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Great. With 3 active users + the French folks around we start to have a sustainable Indian community here. All my thanks to Subodh & Nitesh Gill. Yug (talk) 18:55, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
