Not funded

Hello carter009, thank you for submitting your grant application. We appreciate your interest in contributing to the mission of the Wikimedia Movement. We are continuously strengthening our grants review process, ensuring that grant funding is being invested towards impactful projects and efforts geared towards contributing to the mission of Wikimedia Movement in the most efficient and effective manner.

After reviewing your application, we have decided to not fund your Rapid Fund request. Here are the main reasons for our decision:

• Budget alignment: The proposed budget does not align with the described activities and overall project impact. Your application needs to have a reasonable budget that is aligned with your context.
• Project plan and overall impact: The project plan, goals, and overall impact are unclear.
• Sustainability of the project: We think that there are considerable concerns regarding the sustainability of the project. Other experienced editors in the region haven't been engaged in the project.
• Lack of capacity: The applicant or the team did not show sufficient capacity on and off Wikimedia projects to run the project. We recommend gaining more experience on Wikimedia projects as a contributor and trainer of proposed projects.
