WMF review[edit]

Hi Biplab Anand, I see that you did not use the community input survey but instead discussed this project on the village pump. Please let us know how many people participated in that discussion, and provide a link to the discussion. You should add this to the community input section of your proposal. A community input survey is a required step for this grant proposal process, in the future, if you want to gather community input in a different way you need to discuss this with a grants officer before submitting the proposal. --KHarold (WMF) (talk) 22:00, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@KHarold (WMF): Thanks for reviewing the proposal. We have discussed this project on Nepali, Maithili, Doteli, Newari and Sanskrit language Wikipedia. 12 people participated in the discussion so far at different Wikipedia's. The link of the discussion is as follows-
