Comments from DSaroyan (WMF)[edit]

Hi Haylad, thank you for submitting this final report. I’m glad to learn about the outcomes of the Afrocine contest in Nigeria. Thank you for running this contest in your community. I have reviewed the final report and have a few questions and comments:

  • How did you track the participants’ contributions? Could you provide a link where you have a list of the edited articles?
  • Who were the contest winners? Did you select them as initially planned?
  • Did you have any new participants and how many?
  • Thank you for empowering some participants to facilitate the events. How many of them did facilitate any training sessions?

I look forward to your response in order to move forward with the review process. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 10:16, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
