Application received

Hi, Olaniyan Olushola, thank you for submitting this rapid grant request! We have received a high volume of requests, which may delay our review. We appreciate your patience and will respond to your request as soon as possible. In the meantime I have one question:

• Is this travel to support the Nnamdi Azikiwe Library's rapid grant request

Yes, the travel support is to travel to Enugu to support the event as an experienced Wikipedian. Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 07:57, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

Not Funded

Hello Olaniyan Olushola, thank you for your willingness to travel to Enugu state and provide support for the Nnamdi Azikiwe Library Editathon. Unfortunately, I am marking this proposal as not funded because our grant program is set up to fund programs that are under $2000. Your travel should not be a separate grant request from the editathon, rather it should be included in the Nnamdi Azikwe's Library Editathon budget. If they can rearrange their budget and include your travel in there then I can consider it. But it doesn't make sense to fund separate travel that will make the overall budget for that program over $2000. Furthermore, last year they were able to conduct the program with remote support and exceed their goals for the project so if you're able to provide similar remote support as Masssly did last year that would be allow them to keep their same budget but have an experienced Wikimedian on hand as well. What do you think? Best regards, WJifar (WMF) (talk) 23:38, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi@WJifar (WMF): thank you for the amazing work that you are doing here. Please note that the event organizer has the final say on the execution of the project. Mine is to act according to their wishes. Regards Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 08:36, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
