Blacklisting

@Effective Light: Hey Effective Light, thanks for submitting your idea. Wanted to ask for a little clarification. I can't say that all projects have them, but the English Wikipedia does maintain a list of blacklisted websites that cannot be used. There is also a whitelist of specific pages from domains that are OK, when the domain generally is blocked. Have a look at those pages there, and if there's something you think can be done better about handling these cases of inappropriate domains for use on Wikipedia, feel free to elaborate on your idea. Thanks, I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 23:26, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

April 12 Proposal Deadline: Is your project ready for funding?

The deadline for Individual Engagement Grant (IEG) submissions this round is April 12th, 2016. If you’ve developed your idea into a project that would benefit from funding, consider applying!

To apply, you must (1) create a draft request using the “Expand into an Individual Engagement Grant” button on your idea page, (2) complete the proposal entirely, filling in all empty fields, and (3) change the status from "draft" to "proposed." As soon as you’re ready, you should begin to invite any communities affected by your project to provide feedback on your proposal talk page.

If you have any questions about IEG or would like support in developing your proposal, we're hosting a few proposal help sessions this month in Google Hangouts:

• April 5th, 16:00 - 17:00 UTC
• April 8th 1:00 - 2:00 UTC
• April 12th 16:00 - 17:00 UTC

I'm also happy to set up an individual session. With thanks, I JethroBT (WMF) 00:38, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
