Grants talk:PEG/Bojana Wiki PG/Trace of a Soul/Report

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

We are pleased to hear that the first photo contest organized by your user group was so successful, despite the challenges that some people had uploading photos. The rate of photos in use is very impressive, as well as the number of new members who became active as part of this project. It is good to hear how much support you got from partner organizations, from helping organize the lists of monuments to providing event space, volunteers and promoting the contest on their networks. It is too bad that there were electrical outages on the day of the editathon. Is this something that you can avoid in the future, or are outages like this unpredictable? Please hold on to the 56.3 EUR remaining from this project while we review your new application. --KHarold (WMF) (talk) 21:29, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Kacie for your comments. About grant funds remaining, please note that €56,3 from Trace of a Soul grant was included in amount of received money for Wikimedia Start Republika Srpska 2016. Unfortunately, the Internet infrastructure is not the best. We are trying to provide the best free internet streams. In most of the cases problems are not predictable. Of corse, it can be reduce the consequences with its own mobile internet, which is very expensive.--Bojana Wiki PG (talk) 19:48, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the update, Bojana Wiki PG. I'd like to confirm that the €56,3 underspend was indeed deducted from the Wikimedia Start Republika Srpska 2016 grant payment. -- Best, JTud (WMF), Grants Administrator (talk) 19:53, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
