Comments from WMF

Hello Ammarpad, thanks for submitting this Rapid Grant request. We are excited that you are organizing the Wikipedia 20 anniversary in Katsina, Nigeria. I have reviewed your application and have the following questions and comments:

• Could you please respond to the question #6?

  Done

• Please also respond to the question about the participants’ engagement under the Impact section.

  Answered

• Are you requesting this grant proposal on behalf of any Wikimedia affiliate?

  No

• Please confirm that you will also reach out to potential participants on your community pages of Wikipedia and Meta-Wiki.

  I confirm that we will reach out to all across our community and platforms, an event page will be created to help on that regard.

• In your budget, you have an item called “4G-LTE mini Mi-fi”. Are you planning to purchase or hire this router? Please note that per the Rapid Grant guidelines we currently do not allow equipment purchase expenses.

  I have adjusted that.

Looking forward to your responses. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 13:47, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, DSaroyan (WMF). I have updated the grant page and answered your questions. – Ammarpad (talk) 08:37, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello Ammarpad, it seems that you have not addressed my second request. Please respond to this question on the proposal page under the Impact section. If you are organizing a meetup or event without any contributions to celebrate Wikipedia 20, we request that you ask participants to complete a brief survey to understand their experience and impact of your event. This survey will not request any personally identifying information. Will you be able to collect this information either during or after your event? Thank you, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 07:07, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello DSaroyan (WMF), I answered it now. – Ammarpad (talk) 07:48, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
