=== Achievements ===
* '''An interesting MediaWiki bug:''' We noticed an interesting MediaWiki bug. Zooming in on any page (except the log-in page) to a magnification of 150% or more was transforming the Sarkarverse logo into the Wikipedia logo. The error was fixed by removing some Wikimedia-based code from our MediaWiki.css page.
* '''Article count:''' In our first year we published over 400 articles on Sarkarverse. As of this date we have 417 articles. Our users have made well over 16,000 edits.
* '''Musical notations for some Prabhat Samgiita songs:''' For some Prabhat Samgiita songs, we have been able to add musical notations contributed to Sarkarverse by Bhaeravaji. We also added a musical notation for a PROUT song that was earlier contributed to PROUT Films by Jyoshnaji.  
* '''Sararkarverse in different languages:''' In the first year, Sarkarverse was started in five languages— English, French, Bengali, Hindi and Finnish
* '''Charitable status of AmRevolution, Inc:''' Sarkarverse is a project of [http://amrevolution.org AmRevolution, Inc.], a registered charity in the USA. On December 1, after more than two and a half years effort, we have finally received approval from the United States Internal Revenue Service of our {{H:title|Scan of 501(c)(3) approval letter|[http://sarkarverse.org/Authorization/501%28c%29%283%29_Letter.png 501(c)(3) status.]|link=no|dotted=no}}
* '''Prabhat Samgiita and Ananda Marga Caryacarya portals:''' [[Portal:Prabhat Samgiita]] and [[Portal:Ananda Marga Caryacarya]] have been well-started in the first year. Both the portals have more than a hundred articles at this moment.
* '''New server:''' In August 2014 , we moved to new server, which has doubled the speed and stability of our site.
 
=== Disappointments===
* '''Loss of founding member:''' At the end of his first year of work on Sarkarverse, Tito Dutta retired from the project due to financial constraints. We are very sorry to see him go, and we thank him much for his immense contribution to Sarkarverse. We wish him well in all his future endeavors.
* '''Lack of editors:''' It is a great disappointment that despite inviting, requesting, and reminding many people, we still have very few active editors at this time.
 
=== Looking forward ===
In our second year, we intend to expand on our current achievements. The speed with which that will take place depends on the recruitment of additional editors. Please do consider getting involved.
