Not right now, but you might consider being a Wiki Guide if you're interested in learning the ropes of helping newcomers.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 15:32, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Discussion
Bhavana, thanks for your interest in the Wikipedia Ambassador Program. For Online Ambassadors, we're looking for editors with more Wikipedia experience than you have at this point.

But please, keep editing, and apply again down the road! The best kinds of experience to demonstrate the skills needed to be an ambassador are writing "Did you know" articles or participating in the Good Article process as either a writer or reviewer, as well as consistent edit history that a lot of recent activity over a period of months.
