Thank you for this informative and detailed report. The report is accepted. Alex Wang (WMF) (talk) 19:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

We have a few questions/comments and would appreciate your response.

  1. It's great to hear that despite the challenging political situation, you were able to accomplish a considerable amount and develop a promising relationship with the National Paralympics Committee.
  2. If there are changes to Russia's FOP policies and more images are able to be uploaded and integrated on wiki projects, please send us an update.
  3. It is interesting to hear that you are concerned writing contests actually decrease the number of contributors. Are you actually seeing this happen in your community?
  4. The remaining USD 444.10 will be deducted from the grant payment.

Thanks, Alex Wang (WMF) (talk) 19:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi Alex and thanks for your questions!
  1. Thank you for your comment, we are also looking forward to organising new projects with the National Paralympics Committee
  2. From 1 October 2014, Russia will have the freedom of panorama for buildings, thus we will be able to upload pictures of sport venues
  3. We have observed that the number of contributors decreased in periods when we organised a number of writing contests in a row. We do not know if these two observations are linked.
  4. OK
