From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Hello @M-Mustapha:, thank you for submitting the final report and organizing the WPWP for Hausa Community in your community. We are happy to know about your experience in this project. We are sorry to know about the challenges you encountered in program in terms of contributions. We are pleased to know about your future plans to try to different approaches for involving new users and old ones for encouraging more participation. Can you mention the link for the dashboard or hashtag tool you used to calculate the contributions on Wikipedia and commons? Warm Regards RSharma (WMF) (talk) 15:45, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @RSharma (WMF): for the assessment! Here's the Hashtag tool I used to calculate the results. Hashtag WPWP Hausa project. You might see a slight changes in the present results of the hashtag, this is due to the removal/deletion of non free license images/files that are on commons prior to the contest, because there are lots of unlicensed files in there that are not being used but because of this contest people have used them on various Wikipedia Pages which brought them out to the public, and the people that actually have their ownership requested their removal and many of them were deleted. You can check this Bot activity (contribs) CommonsDelinker. Thanks, regards. Em-mustapha User | talk 21:06, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
