Hello Filipinayzd thank you for submitting your grant request for Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in the Philippines. I have a couple of follow up questions before we can proceed:

  1. Can you clarify if the outreach activities travel and accommodation is for all 100 participants?
  2. We are unfortunately no longer allowing cash prizes. You can read more about what's eligible in our guidelines and criteria. Can you please change that to non-cash prizes?

Looking forward to your response. Best regards, WJifar (WMF) (talk) 14:56, 26 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi WJifar (WMF). I have updated the proposal. The description for outreach activities has been corrected Photography walks/expeditions to engage past and new volunteers, and photographers in at least 3 locations. Cost may include travel and accommodation for the team and not for the participants, for activities outside Camarines Sur. WLM is mainly online and we deem it is also important to have offline promotion such as photography walks/expeditions to be participated by past and new volunteers, as organizers or participants, and local photographers in select locations which are far away from the base of the team, which is Naga City in the province of Camarines. Initially, we have discussed to conduct activities with a group of photographers in the province of Albay, an organization of architects and architecture students in Camarines Sur, and online groups of built heritage conservation advocates from different part of the country. Regarding the cash prizes, we changed it to gadgets namely, GoPro HERO6 Black (1 year warranty), Canon Selphy CP1200 Wireless Color Portable Photo Printer, and two (2) Toshiba Canvio Advance (new) 2TB (Black) USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive. --Filipinayzd (talk) 09:17, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
