About Me
- I am a first-year student at IIT (Indian Institute Of Technology) Patna doing B.Tech in CSE(Computer Science & Engineering). I am a member of the development community in my college. I believe in team work and constantly work towards developing my leadership skills. I was the head boy during my school days and ensured discipline in my school.
- I heard about this program during my JEE vacation. I was amazed by the exposure it provides and wished to get into it.
- Going through the organization list, I found Wikimedia, and when I went through the idealist, I was very excited to contribute to it. While looking forward to searching a pin to the planet, we find everything on Wikipedia, and contributing to make further reliable edits on it will turn out to be a boon to me.
- I am eligible for GSOC’2022 and wish to contribute to the WikiMedia organization. Reading the ideas about the project on GSOC Wikimedia page, I believe, I possess the required skill set to complete the task. Learning is perennial and so, I believe will be my contribution to the project.
