Grants talk:IEG/CodeMinima: The Minimal Code Wiki

Thanks for submitting! First round of feedback on your idea

Hi Najeeb,
Thanks for submitting this idea, it sounds interesting! From what you've drafted so far, it seems like you're interested in creating a new project modeled upon Wikipedia, rather than something that improves or is incorporated into an existing Wikimedia project. If that is the case, your idea will likely fall outside of the scope of eligible kinds of projects that Individual Engagement Grants can fund. There is another process for proposing new sister projects for Wikimedia (the latest addition to the family was Wikivoyage), so I'd encourage you to have a look there as well - it would probably be best to propose your idea for a new wiki in that forum before requesting funding. Or, if I've misunderstood your idea or you can provide more information about how this proposal is a good fit with the eligibility and selection criteria, feel free to respond here or add more information to your proposal page. Thanks! Siko (WMF) (talk) 05:15, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Does not meet IEG eligibility criteria

Hi again, I've updated this proposal's status to ineligible, because it does not appear to meet the eligibility criteria for an Individual Engagement Grant project - namely, that projects should improve Wikimedia's existing websites. Feel free to keep working on this draft and resubmit at a later time if something changes with the overall project idea! And thanks again for participating.
