Topic: Proposition! Posted: 02-May-2006 at 15:34 |
could a moderator please sticky this?
To all those wondering the South Asia Forums i suggest we make our presence more felt on Allempires. On the main page we will find no link to South Asia History, but links to many other parts of the world. This is probably because as of now the South Asia Secion only has two articles.
We, as South Asians, claim one of the oldest histories in the world, so it is pittiful to only have two articles.
This is why, i propose we start writting articles for the section, perhaps by state? or time period? or even random subjects we have an expertise on.
South Asian forumers have been known for copy-paste jobs, so lets leave the plagerism this time.
Whats your thoughts on this?
My arcticles on Gujarati history are coming up shortly as soon as i can find time to fit it around my work commitments.

It would be great to see more South Asian (and Southeast Asian too) representation here! Given the length and importance of South Asian history, it's both such a shame and intriguing that it's been so underrepresented here.

I'm not South Asian, but I am very facinated in South Asain history, religion, geography and even politics. I will do my best to contribute to this board. Btw, I think this is a great idea, Anuj.

Hmmh. Post it here?
It wouldn't quite fit now into the Mag probably but then we have to redirect Imperator here for him to upload them. Paul is another variant.
If you agree, that is.

Start it then Cahaya. Some one has to. Think, a malaysian person comes here seeing no SE Asian posts and then posts none so then the next person doesnt see any either.
The mods are trying to work out what to do with SE Asia at the moment.

A good suggestion, if u start one good thread then it is likely to show up on some web searches. It could possibly attract people from that region when doing keyword searches through web search engines.
I would love to know more about that region.

I believe i had tried.. quiet a numbers.. well.. not as much as others did but i have tried my very best.. the problem is.. there's so few SE Asian members.. and so less participation and interests from other members who are from other regions to take parts in the discussions.. except the SE Asian recipes topics in AE Tavern.. lol...
Anyhow i'll try.. need someone to help too...hehehe...

Maybe we could delegate specific tasks to specific individuals. Let somebody become the delegator

Not enough people to do that. It's simple enough that pick something you want, when you have time to write it and add it. Post it here, then post it on the main site through a link (www.allempires.com)
