Report accepted[edit]

Hi, Anthere, thank you for submitting this final report! I have reviewed and am accepting it.

Congratulations on a successful set-up for WLA! We are all very excited to see the images that come in and were so pleased that you were able to get some new local teams involved :-)

I'm happy to hear that you had more success building a team this year than in the past, but sorry to hear that you still don't have enough committed volunteers; that can be very challenging. And yes, if you have any flexibility with the launch date for a contest keeping it out of All Hands week would be easiest for everyone. We want to be able to support our grantees to the best of our abilities, but during a time like that it's challenging for us to be responsive (as you experienced).

Thank you for all the hard work you put into this grant, and for sharing what you learned with WMF and the community.
