Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Open Labs Hackerspace - Wiki Loves Maps (Albania)/Report

Comments from I JethroBT (WMF)

Hi ElioQoshi, and thanks for your report on this Wiki Loves Maps event. Here are my comments:

  • Wow! I realize the goal of this project was focused on geo-data, but I am very impressed that your group was able to improve such a large number of articles on SQ Wikipedia and on topics related to Albania in other projects, I agree that although the participation may have been lower than expected, the participants in the event were very productive.
  • Thanks for documenting the new skills participants became proficient in as a result of their participation in the event. It's great to see that so many participants came not having done this sort of work before, but left knowing a new way to contribute to SQ Wikipedia and other projects.
  • It's great to hear there is continued interest in this line of work, and that you are planning sessions to further teach about adding geo-data to articles. I hope the event in Syros goes well.
  • In terms of your remaining funds, these may be applied to the WLM 2017 competition, or you may use them for any mission-related purposes.

Thanks again for your work. This proposal is officially accepted. I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 02:16, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
