Talk:List of Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize recipients

Translation
Ping, and , if any of you are willing to do the (easy) job of translating this article to French, Portuguese and German respectively. Solomon7968 13:42, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

I remember you telling me that some folks in the German Wikipedia prefer to write articles after lists of prize-winners. Can you expand more on that and the users and their programs involved? Of course taking on this whole SSB prize should take a huge investment in time and effort (as it took for ' almost single handed effort) and probably few in German Wikipedia would have the necessary prerequisite knowledge regarding India related topics. However the situation should improve in time as more users get involved. Solomon7968 03:12, 17 December 2017 (UTC)


 * OK, I began with the article on the prize : fr:Prix Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar de sciences et technologie. For the lists of recipients, I think I'm going to split into one liste per discipline. And Bhatnagar himself and the CSIR will have also to be translated...--Cbyd (talk) 14:15, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

I was impressed by the fact, that all of the recipients had an article in the english wikipedia (and mostly not a stub article, so it should be relatively easy to write articles on them based on the english wikipedia articles), and its mainly due to one author User:Tachs, as I checked. A caveat is, that a lot of the most important Indian scientists are not covered by the prize, because they are working in the USA or other foreign countries and not in India. There is also an age limit of 45. As to contributors to the german wikipedia, who are filling lists of scientists (other than me) de:Benutzer:Drahreg01 comes to mind. He supervises a huge number of lists of science prizes, actualizing them at the date of announcement (with a calendar), and also writes systematically articles on scientists and prizes, his main area by profession is medicine, but also other scientists and the Nobelprize-project (which leads every autumn to a playful competition), see de:Benutzer:Ephraim33/Nobelpreisträgerprojekt (there you can find other users in the german wikipedia active in this field, or at least active in the past). Some other prizes are strong indicators for this project and are routinely kept "blue" (for example the Albert Lasker Awards, Robert Koch and Paul-Ehrlich-und-Ludwig-Darmstaedter-Preis).--Claude J (talk) 17:13, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
