- I have contributed to Wikidata, English Wikipedia, Telugu Wikipedia and Wikimedia commons. I have published two Did you knows in English Wikipedia. I have participated in various campaigns of Wikimedia foundation conducted by VVIT WikiConnect. I like the concept of Jimmy Wales imagining a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. As a coordinator I would like to promote this concept among my college students and make my friends to take part in Wikimedia movement.
