It's quite necessary to have the documentations of languages so as people who want to know about such languages will have easy access to it. I am confident it's will be beneficial to the knowledge society --787IYO (talk) 17:53, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

This photo walk will be of impact in bringing the gap of contents about the Kanuri culture and heritage, as there are a few photos about the Kanuri people in wikimedia commons. This is a perfect time for this project as we are organizing a workshop in the state capital and articles will be created about the Kanuri people and photos will be needed. I strongly support this project.

Not Funded

Hello @Umargana1 thank you for applying for the rapid fund grant. We reviewed your grant application and decided to not fund your application at this time. Here is some feedback that you might all consider as you work towards a coordinated and potentially more impactful effort;

• In the budget, you have listed broad expense categories such as food, transportation, accommodation, and space rental, it would be beneficial to break down these costs further. Provide a detailed breakdown of expenses within each category. For instance, specify the cost of meals per participant, transportation fares, accommodation charges per night, and the rental cost for each space. Detailed breakdowns enhance transparency and make the budget more understandable.

• There are inconsistencies in the number of participants mentioned in the budget and the ones stated in the project description (20 participants in the budget vs. 15 new editors and 5 existing editors in the project description). Ensure that the number of participants is consistent across all sections of your proposal and aligns with your project objectives.

• While your project aims to document Kanuri culture and heritage, the application lacks specific details about the content you plan to create. Provide more detailed information about the topics, events, artifacts, or traditions you intend to document.

Best regards, (On behalf of the Middle East and Africa regional funds team) ~~~~ YPam (WMF) (talk) 23:53, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
