- First of all, I would like to express my thanks for all the comments and recommendations in our project proposal, especially to Jacqueline and all reviewer team.
- Yes it's similar to a photowalk activiy, but I'm really sorry for using the 'hunting photo' term in this proposal. I'm just realized that this term is not widely used in English daily conversation, so I'm very sure we have different perception towards this proposal before.
- Like we said earlier in private notes for the reviewer team on our proposal application. Since it is our first experience, we are having a hard time and difficulty to search for guideline and reference, the only one guide that we used to design this proposal is based on other people's proposal project around us like WikiCitaRasa and Integrasi Leksem menggunakan Wikidata dan Wikisource.
- So we don't know about the unreasonable price rule, we don't aware about what the ideal budgetting should look like (the ideal ratio percentage of personnel costs and total budget), but we cooperative to set back the budgetting again to be more appropriate and follow the reasonable principle.
- After doing online meeting with our local Wikimedia Community (Komunitas Wikimedia Medan), we considering to and will change the mechanism, we will doing workshop after each photowalk. So the total of the photowalk activity is 4 times, along with 4 workshop in the same day, as well as additional in target participant from 15 (outside 3 staffs) to 30 participants (including 3 staff). And also will be one self-independent workshop for closing event. The details are:
- 1. A day for Photowalk and workshop (upload file to Wikimedia Commons and contribute in Wikipedia and Wikidata) in Medan, most likely around 15 Aug - 21 Aug 2025
- 2. A day for Photowalk and workshop (upload file to Wikimedia Commons and contribute in Wikipedia and Wikidata) in Lubuk Pakam and Deli Serdang Regency, most likely around 22 Aug - 28 Aug 2025
- 3. A day for Photowalk and workshop (upload file to Wikimedia Commons and contribute in Wikipedia and Wikidata) in Binjai, most likely around 29 Aug - 11 Sept 2025
- 4. A day for Photowalk and workshop (upload file to Wikimedia Commons and contribute in Wikipedia) in Stabat, most likely around 12 Sept - 25 Sept 2025
- 5. Closing workshop in Medan (introduction to Wikimedia projects, presentation to the tutorial in Wikipedia, upload file to Wikimedia Commons and contribute in Wikipedia), most likely in 4 October 2025

- Bibazi

- Bibazi is the enthusiastic and dilligent newcomer in Wikimedia Movement. We need him and his spatial knowledge around Stabat and Langkat Regency, because he is the local of this area.
- About the budgetting, after some discussions and consultation privately with previous rapid fund WMF grantee, there will be cut in personnel costs to be more reasonable and match with the ideal ratio cost personnel:total budget. The rest of the fund will be prioritized in extra target participents, extra workshop and photowalk.
- And also, after some considerations within the internal team, the hotel budget will be removed, because we targetting closer location target (but still in the area of map we provide before) so we don't need to stay overnight outside our own residence in Medan City. Here we provide the link to the revision:
