SOME NOTES on the ETYMOLOGY of the WORD Altai / Altay Altai/Altay Kelimesinin Etimolojisi Üzerine Notlar
........... SOME NOTES ON THE ETYMOLOGY OF THE WORD altai / altay Altai/Altay Kelimesinin Etimolojisi Üzerine Notlar Hüseyin YILDIZ*1 Dil Araştırmaları, Bahar 2017/20: 187-201 Öz: Günümüzde Altay Dağları’nı adlandırmada kullanılan altay kelimesine tarihî Türk lehçelerinde bu fonetik biçimiyle rastlanmamaktadır. Bize göre altay kelimesinin altun kelimesiyle doğrudan ilgisi vardır. Ancak bunu daha net bir şekilde görebilmek için şu iki soruyu cevaplandırmak gerekir: i) altun kelimesi, Altay dağları için kullanılan adlandırmalarda yer almakta mıdır? ii) İkinci hecedeki /u/ ~ /a/ ve /n/ ~ /y/ denklikleri fonetik olarak açıklanabilir mi? Bu makalede altay kelimesinin etimolojisi fonetik (/n/ ~ /y/ ve /a/~ /u/), semantik (altun yış, chin-shan, altun owla…) ve leksik (Altun Ğol, Altan Ḫusu Owla…) yönlerden tartışılacaktır. Bize göre hem Eski Türkçe altay kelimesinin tarihinden hem de ‘Altay Dağları’ için kullanılan kelimelerden hareketle, kelimenin en eski şekli *paltuń şeklinde tasarlanabilir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Türk yazı dilleri, Eski Türkçe, etimoloji, altay kelimesi, yer adları, Altay Dağları Abstract: The word altay is an oronym referring to Altai Mountains, but it, in this phonological form, is not attested to have existed in early Turkic works. We consider that the word altay is directly related with the word altun. However, to see this clearer we must answer following two questions: i) Is the word altun used for any denominating system of the Altay Mountains? and ii) Could the equivalencies between /u/ ~ /a/ and between /n/ ~ /y/ phonemes on the second syllable be explained phonologically? This article aims to discuss the etymology of the word altai in following respects: phonologically (/n/ ~ /y/ and /a/~ /u/), semantically (altun yış, chin- shan, altun owla…) and lexically (Altun Ğol, Altan Ḫusu Owla…).

Common Issues Faced by Indic Wikipedia
Indic Wikipedia Policies & Guidelines Handbook Table of content Preface Introduction to policies Types of policies Features of a policy page Necessity of policies and guidelines Creating policies Proposing Village pump Article or project talk page Policy page and its talk page Initial proposal Highlighting important discussion Discussing Consensus Implementing Modifying or updating an existing policy Enforcements Common issues faced by Indic Wikipedia communities Missing or incomplete policy pages Incomplete or untranslated policy pages Lack of active translators/editors Addressing the issues Dedicated team or task force Using MediaWiki translation tool Policy mapping Credits Images Text Screenshots Planning suggestions Proofreading: Preface Currently CIS-A2K is working with five Indian-language Wikimedia communities (Kannada, Konkani, Marathi, Odia and Telugu). While working with the mentioned Indic Wikimedia communities, we observed a number of issues affecting them and we also noticed that there are many similarities between the issues and difficulties faced by these communities. So, we decided to create this “Indic Wikipedia Policies and Guidelines Handbook”. At first, we created a short handbook discussing a number of topics, such as how to create new policies, or modify the existing ones, using village pump, enforcing policies etc. Then we talked to Indic Wikipedians to know more about the policy and guideline related issues and problems they are facing. We also asked for their feedback on the first draft of this handbook. When we contacted them and requested them to join our survey, we received overwhelming responses from them. We must thank everyone who has taken part in our surveys and we will continue communicating with Indic Wikimedians.

The India Chronicles Dear Community
September 2011 By Tory Read Growing Wikipedia: The India Chronicles Dear Community, As the Wikimedia Foundation began its catalyst work, we commissioned documentarian Tory Read to create a vivid description of our work in India during the important early stages of our activities. This was done in the interest of transparency and to ensure that we captured lessons from this new approach. It also serves as a window into some of the exciting developments in the Indian Wikimedia community. Our goal is to honestly communicate about our work in this new arena and to stimulate dialogue about diverse ways to support and build Wikipedia communities and Wikimedia projects around the world. We hope that you take away a nuanced understanding of the work in India. We encourage you to tell us what you think and ask informed questions as this work continues to unfold. Sincerely, Barry Newstead Chief Global Development Officer, Wikimedia Foundation This is a journalistic account and analysis, based on document review, interviews and observations conducted between November 2010 and June 2011, including 16 days in India in June 2011. I planned and organized my visit based on where the most Wikipedia activities were happening at the time. The Malayalam Wikipedia community had been planning their annual meetup, and they scheduled it to fall within my travel dates so I could report on it. The views expressed herein are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of Wikimedia Foundation. Tory Read, documentarian Growing Wikipedia: The India Chronicles | September 2011 2 “Wikipedia saved my life.” That’s what Srikeit Tadepalli, an MBA student in Pune, India, told me one day in June.
