Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Istanbul Photowalk

Hi Fatih Ahıskalı. Thank you for this grant request. Our understanding is that you are asking for photo equipment for yourself personally to take photos to add to Commons and Wikimedia projects. Unfortunately, we do not fund personal equipment. We do fund equipment for Wikimedia affiliates who can then track and lend out to community members. Please review our equipment guidelines. Let us know if we have understood the proposal correctly. Best, Alex Wang (WMF) (talk) 22:44, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Awang. These are not to be bought for personal use, rather rental to be shared among the attendants during the photowalk. It'd cost 5936TL (roughly 2041 USD) if the equipment were to bought. Fatih Ahıskalı (talk) 06:30, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Fatih Ahıskalı. Thank you for the clarification. Unfortunately, Google translate did not do a good job : ). We are happy to support camera equipment rental for the 5 photowalks. This request is approved. Cheers, Alex Wang (WMF) (talk) 16:52, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
