The students as well teachers and professors who were attending the class learned about basic features, editing and creating an article on Maithili Wikipedia as well in other projects too. They created their accounts in Maithili Wikipedia (account creation logs); They also learned uploading images in the commons, created their user pages, and maintenance of some categories there. Students, teachers and Professors as well practice some basic editing in wikipedia and creating new articles on a topic they were interested in.
