My Introductory Task
In order to apply for the internship I need to do a small first contribution to the project, assigned by the project mentor. I was asked to fix a small bug - https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39441 in the extension. Here is thefix I did:https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/36355/ (YAY! I fixed it :)) It was a pleasure to work with my mentor, with all the lovely people in IRCs, and  specially visiting the 'core' of  MediaWiki was pretty much fun!

My Proposal for OPW Internship
Yes! My proposal for OPW internship is publicly available in a wiki page. Have a look:https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Sucheta_Ghoshal/OPW-EtherEditor It would be lovely to listen to your views and to have your support. Really. It means a lot to me! :)

WikiDays
My submission (on Expanding Bengali Wikipedia) for presenting in the conference was selected as a Talk.

Moreover, I was a speaker at the Panel Discussion on Gender Gap:"Where are the Women?" moderated by Bishakha Datta, at Wiki Conference 2011.

I had started working for Bengali Wikipedia and also organized the first Wiki Academy of Kolkata in my college with a great success of 100+ attendees, which turned out to be the biggest one in recent times!

Best ever contribution to Wikipedia
Recently I have taught my 65-year old Great aunt to edit Wikipedia. Yes. I do consider it to be my Best Ever Contribution to Wikipedia. :) You can read about the experience here, in Wikimedia Blog: http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/10/26/editing-wikipedia-and-overcoming-a-generation-gap/ It was such pleasure writing for them! :)
