Our Delivery

I am happy to announce, chandigarh hackathon WCI2016, close with 7 application, which is useful to all community.

WikiSpeak : (Web Application + Android Mobile application).
WikiSpeak lets you search text on Wikipedia at just one click and reads aloud that text for you. It uses an API to fetch data from Wikipedia and then text to speech conversion is done. There are both web app and mobile app available. The user has to just enter a keyword like 'India' and then on the click of search icon, data from the Wikipedia will be fetched and displayed and then on the click of speak icon, that fetched data will be read aloud. So the entire speaking Wikipedia comes into your pocket in just 2.5 Mb app.

Edit Tamil Wiktionary (Tamil community request) : - (Android application) This is a utility application for any wikipedian who has title of the page and its content in a spreadsheet or document. The user will have to convert that document to .tsv which can easily be done using any Office suite. Once the user has a .tsv file, he/she can browse that from this application after logging in using his MediaWiki credentials. This application will read that file and for each row, if a page exists with the given title, it will append the content. Otherwise, it will create a new page with that title and put the given content there. Source code link: https://bitbucket.org/Shailumani/wiki-tsv/src

After a user has logged-in, he/she can record an audio by holding the Record button. Once recorded, the audio can be replayed or re-recorded.

Wikipedia articles on google map : This is a web application to annotate Google Maps with location rich data. Presently, it is able to show Wikipedia articles geo-tagged near the user's location. This application clusters the articles based on client's screen resolution and shows them in a way that they look good on any screen resolution. This is highly responsive and works well on almost all screen sizes. Moreover, using the settings button, you can see the articles in any Indian language of your choice.

Communication platform (WebRTC) : Community used this to talk or conference (Audio/video web conferencing application)

In communication platform (Audio and video conference), Community people can use this platform for discussion. Now a days IRC is only option, Where Same/Different community people can come together and talk. I belief, when you speak, you can express your Point/View/Problem good way. This application working in low bandwidth I tested with 256Kbps, It's working. This application is opensource an you can find here. Github : https://github.com/cherishsantosh/Communication-Platform

Notification (Event based) : showing popup on event eg (If recent changes happen, It will show popup which article was updated) - The extension which is in its inital phase at Github:DesktopNotifications collects in live edit history from http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/RCStream and shows up desktop notifications on edit for users. Currently it shows up a notification for every single edits with little control. The extension can be extended to show up notifications for only edits to a watchlist, which is in our TODO.
