As an active contributor to Wikimedia projects, particularly in the Hausa language, I am fully supportive of this initiative. My involvement in Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons has been a journey of continuous learning and contribution, and I believe that the “Empowering Funtua through Wikidata” project aligns perfectly with my aspirations to deepen my understanding of Wikidata. The project’s focus on enhancing knowledge and participation in Wikidata is crucial for the growth of our local Wikimedia community. It promises to provide valuable insights and skills that are essential for the advancement of open knowledge in our region. I am confident that by participating in this project, I will not only enrich my own Wikidata expertise but also contribute more effectively to the Wikimedia movement.
Endorsement from Aminu Badamasi (talk)
editAs a seasoned Wikimedian with extensive experience in contributing to Wikipedia, I am excited to endorse this proposal. While my journey with Wikimedia has been rich and fulfilling, I recognize that there is always room for growth, particularly in areas that are new to me, such as Wikidata.
This project represents a valuable opportunity for experienced contributors like myself to bridge the gap in our knowledge. Wikidata, with its structured data approach, is a critical component of the Wikimedia ecosystem that I am eager to learn more about. The training and activities proposed promise to enhance our understanding and enable us to contribute more comprehensively to the Wikimedia projects.
I am enthusiastic about the prospect of expanding my skill set and understanding through this initiative. I believe that it will not only benefit my personal development but also strengthen the collective capabilities of our community. Therefore, I wholeheartedly support this proposal and look forward to participating in the project.Aminu Badamasi (talk) 10:05, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
I wholeheartedly support this proposal because it will empower both new and existing Wikimedians in Funtua to gain valuable knowledge about Wikidata. By providing workshops and training sessions, this initiative fosters growth and collaboration within the Wikimedia community.
Rapid Fund Request : Not Funded
editThank you for submitting your application. After a thorough review of your proposal, we have made a decision not to fund your proposal. See the notes speaking to the rationale of the decision below;
- Unclear how contributing on Wiki Data contributes to the goals of “enhancing the digital literacy and knowledge contribution skills of residents in Funtua
- There is a future opportunity for the group to improve Wikipedia articles related to Funtua even as they think about Wiki Data items on the area.
- It is also unclear with the group on how they are building upon the outcomes of previous projects done. What are the outcomes this far, that are motivating the focus on Wiki Data?
