Grants talk:Project/Rapid/UG-GE/Wikipedia Asian Month 2019 in Georgia

Comments from I JethroBT (WMF)

@Mehman97: I know this event has already passed, and that we were not able to review in time. I also see that you did run an Wikipedia Asian Month event. However, because this proposal was submitted beforehand, I'm willing to provide funding for it provided you can send vouchers and certificates to the winners/participants and prepare a report on the outcomes from the event. If you are willing to do so, by when can you prepare a report and expense documentation for this work? I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 06:32, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

@Mehman97: Apologies for my previous comment-- I actually cannot make this funding arrangement due to the UG-GE's current SAPG. However, as I noted in a previous comments, it may be possible to reallocate funding from Wikimedia Georgia's current Simple Annual Plan Grant to cover these expenses. Please e-mail simplewikimedia.org if this is an option you would like to consider. I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 06:36, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Hello @I JethroBT (WMF):. Unfortunately, at this stage I can’t say whether we can finance this project from APG, because I don’t know if there will be any remainder from this year’s projects. But, I have proposals for rapid grants of WM Georgia, which we were refused: can we refuse them and instead our colleagues from another non-profit organization will submit these proposals, with which we work on the development of Wikimedia projects in Georgia? If so, then we will change the organization on them in these grants. --Mehman 97 14:58, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

@Mehman97: Hi Mehman. This is a complex and sensitive question, so I'll be following up with you over e-mail about it. I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 18:28, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
