Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Wikimedia Nigeria/Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos in Nigeria 2021

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Comments from DSaroyan (WMF)[edit]

Hi Kaizenify, thanks for submitting this Rapid Grant request to run the WPWP campaign in Nigeria. I have reviewed your application and have a few questions:

  • We now require all grantees to announce their projects and receive the Wikimedia community feedback in advance. Could you please announce this project and grant on the relevant Nigerian community pages on the target wikis? Community notification may be most appropriate on a village pump, talk page, or mailing list. Please paste a link into the proposal page to where the relevant communities have been notified of this proposal, and to any other relevant community discussions.
  • How will you coordinate this project with other Nigerian communities/local campaigns to ensure that there is no overlap in terms of participation and prizes?
  • How will you make sure that participants won’t list their edits for multiple local campaigns (e.g. WPWP in Nigeria and WPWP in Hausa)?

Budget:

  • Could you please describe what these expenses will cover?
    • Logistics=150 USD
    • Communications=150USD

Looking forward to hearing from you soon. All the best, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 12:50, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello DSaroyan (WMF) and thank you for taking time to review the grant application; here are my responses to your questions below:
  • Community notification can be found here.
  • To ensure that there is no overlap whatsoever, I will ensure participants who will participate here are not wholly involve with other local participation and also the audience for this one here cut across the whole of Nigeria in the various 36 states so there are enough people to participate and there won’t be any overlap.
  • That is why this project is just for one month so I will ensure all contributions here will only become valid if it only reflect #WPWPNG .
  • Logistics expenses here involves the cost of delivering the prices through courier service and also transportation. While communication expenses involves cost of sending sms to general partipants, calls and within the team.

Thanks and let me know if you need more clarity, best regards. Kaizenify (talk) 08:17, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
