Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Fayçal REZKALLAH / WikiNomad

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Hello Fayçal Rezkallah thank you for this proposal. It sounds like a great idea to engage young people in Wikimedia projects. I have some follow up questions:

  1. Can you provide a list of articles you're hoping to improve or photos you're looking to upload? I see you already have themes but if you can provide red links you're hoping the youth will work on it will help define the project further.
  2. I see you plan to have a closing ceremony. How have you budgeted for the expenses of that ceremony? Is the conference room rental for that? Is that all you need for the ceremony?
  3. Have you organized a similar event before this one and what were the results?
  4. You mention that there will be experienced wikipedians from WikiDZ. Two questions on that:
  • Can you provide the names of the wikipedians who will be participating?
  • Will they be part of the trip and have you included their expenses in the budget?

Please let me know your responses to these questions and we can move forward with next steps. Best regards, WJifar (WMF) (talk) 08:45, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]



Hello Woubzena, Here are the answers to your questions:

Here are some links to work on: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mardoud https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jben https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabelle_Eberhardt https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiout


The closing ceremony is what we called "Camp" in budgeting. Accommodation and catering are also budgeted, as well as the conference room planned for the occasion

I am a specialist in training engineering and community activist, I have already piloted a lot of associative projects focused on training, from the diagnosis of needs to the implementation of trainings, the main results was that young people found working with the qualifications provided (Photography, Management ..) but also improve their writing skills, group work and productivity

The two people involved in the project are Mohamed Bachounda and Reda Kerbouche, Bachounda will be part of the trip because he lives in my area, but not Reda, he will be involved as a consultant

Thank you very much for your interest in my project, I am convinced that we will achieve something special

Fayçal Rezkallah

Request to update the report deadline[edit]

Hi Woubzena, Because the Wikinomad is still in progress, As you can see the timeline in the Project Page; The report can't be submitted to you in full. According to Fayçal Rezkallah (WikiNomad project leader), the project can't be closed befor end of December 2018.

During December, we plan hold two Wikinomad's events, as indicated in the program.

Consequently; I propose you to grant us an extension of the date of submission of the report which will be 1 month after the end of the project, in other words the date of submission will be the end January , 2019.
