  4. Nizil Shah (talk · contribs · central auth · count · email) I am editing Wikipedia regularly for past five years. I am particularly interested in adding articles on history, people and politics of India. Wikipedia lacks coverage of topics related to India very much and the access would be helpful in filling that gap. Especially biographies. I think access to ODNB and Oxford Reference will be very helpful. So I am applying for Scholarship stream. Regards,-Nizil (talk) 04:54, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  5. Mramoeba (talk · contribs · central auth · count · email) I would like access to both Scholarship and Journals (in that order) if there is availability.
