Support details

Support type

What type of support you need

• Laptop

Reason

Why do you need this support (Internet and/or laptop)

• I started working for Odia Wikipedia and Wikisource since 2014 and continued working on several projects, but I have to borrow the laptop from my sister for my works.
• After shifting to Bangalore, I don’t the laptop now, so I have to borrow the laptop from my friends. But it’s not available at the time of my works.

Future activities

How will you use this in the next six months?

• If I get this opportunity, then I would be able to participate in more wiki projects like 100wikidays and other edit-a-thons.
• Now I’m continuing my 100wikidays work for Wikipedia and Wikisource simultaneously and aiming for a 500wikidays in both the projects.
• I could involve me more in proofreading of Wikisource.
• I could add the updated data of some person or about the movies regularly to make an article meaningful and attractive.
• A laptop could help me to get more data about some article as per mine time.
• At the time of uploading some photos to commons, I could edit some clicks to make it a better one.
• In Odia Wikipedia, there are a number of articles about dinosaur created by bot, I have planned to improve them by translating from English wikipedia.
• I’m planning to active in the wikinews in Odia.
