Fit to strategy

This project will give benefit to Urdu speaking Wikipedians who will be able to write articles in Urdu. Hence it will increase the no. of articles in urdu, primarily benefiting the quality of our project.

I believe that this short celebration of wikipedia's anniversary would add a great value and motivation among wikipedians and new comers to contribute into wikipedia.

This event would have media coverage all over the country which includes in form of tv news headline as well as popularity of Urdu Wikipedia locally.
