Report accepted[edit]

Hi again, Tokyogirl79. We'd like to accept this report. It's interesting to learn about this outreach approach during the Virginia Library Association conference. While it sounded like there were prohibitive factors that prevented these participants from editing or familiarizing themselves online with Wikipedia, we appreciate your reflection on what could be done differently in the future. It would be good to think about more ways to follow-up with those who responded favorably to editing, through social media or mailing lists, to encourage their interest further after the conference. Thank you for your work for the movement, and we hope you'll consider pursuing another Rapid Grant after this experience! Best, Morgan Jue (WMF) (talk) 23:47, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
