Rapid Fund Request : Not Funded

[edit]

Thank you for submitting your application. After a thorough review of your proposal, we have made a decision not to fund your proposal. See the notes speaking to the rationale of the decision below;

  • The project proposed speaks to addressing a challenge being addressed by already existing solutions like LinguaLibre, and Spell4Wiki. Maybe the team can focus on supporting the use of the existing tools and understanding the uptake or lack thereof towards continuous improvement.
  • Unclear what the value proposition is and against the requested resources, it is prudent that we do not fund the project.
