1- This proposal is important to the people our society especially to Fulfulde Language speaker that known as Fulani. 2- Fulani are well known tribe not in Nigeria but in Africa at large. They are found in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Ghana, Uganda, Togo and many countries in Africa. But most of Fulani don't know wikipedia that is why they need wikipedia awareness in the their communities especially thoose that we are living with in our communities. 3- This project will focus only on Fulfulde speakers i.e Fulani people. 4- Indeed this project will implement so many potential impact to qualitative development and improvement of articles in fulfulde language. --Umar-askira (talk) 15:55, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Endorsment from Iliyasu Umar (talk)[edit]

1- It's important because the speakers of such language (Fulfulde) are day by day increasing and the materials for consultancy are lacking in most of the research centres we have in the communities, the only reliable place to get what you want is wikipedia where materials for fulfulde knowledge are being deposited. So the need to put more efforts in improving the language in wikipedia website is very important. And visitors will get educated via Wikipedia. --Iliyasu Umar (talk) 14:07, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Endorsement from Khadijah Ardido[edit]

I support this project because this is the first Fulfulde awareness in kaduna state and whole north west most of Fulani people didn't know Wikipedia especially in Kaduna! So this project will attract a lot of Fulbe and will make a good impact! We welcome this project in Kaduna state. Ardibe Ardake (talk) 16:28, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not funded[edit]

Hello Salihu Aliyu,

Thank you for submitting your grant application. We appreciate your interest in contributing to the mission of the Wikimedia Movement. We are continuously strengthening our grants review process, ensuring that grant funding is being invested towards impactful projects and efforts geared towards contributing to the mission of Wikimedia Movement in the most efficient and effective manner.

After a thorough review of your application, we have decided to not fund your Rapid Fund request. Here are the main reasons for our decision:

  • While the proposed goals are interesting and significant, the plan behind these goals are unclear and lack details.
  • There are already some activities connected to Fulfulde language and Wikimedia projects. The collaboration efforts between this and other similar activities are unclear.
  • The budget is not aligned with the described activities and is not detailed enough to figure out the connection between specific activities.
  • The applicant's experience on the target Wikimedia project is not demonstrated.
