Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Sanusi Gado/Wikipedia Nigerian women in politics edit-a-thon

Comments from DSaroyan (WMF)

Hello Sanusi Gado, thanks for submitting this Rapid Fund application. I completed the initial review and I have a few questions:

• I request that you provide more information about how exactly you will bridge the gender gap aside from translating articles.
• How would you define which articles to create and edit? Do you have any prepared list of articles to work on during the editing process?
• Please provide a clear and detailed way of engaging participants after the events.
• Do you consult the Hausa Wikimedians before submitting a new Rapid Fund request or project idea? How do you consult and let them know about the planned activities?

Looking forward to your response. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 11:53, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

• There is a plan to create a WhatsApp group for our fellow participants to help keep in touch even after the events. Because, most people in our community are much more familiar with the use of WhatsApp. Therefore, we wil keep in touch via that channel.
• Yes. I have consulted the Hausa Wikimedians by making an announcement on the community discussion page earlier and also left a link on the project draft page.
