Comment[edit]

Dear Winniejovita

The Wikimedia User Group Nigeria community support fund committee has further reviewed your application, and they have some follow-up questions and requests regarding your application:

  • You did not put any date for the project. The project date is required.
  • Printing of T-shirts might not necessary (a maximum of 5 can be printed and used as souvenirs for best participants)
  • Food cost should be reduced
  • To have a more realistic budget, we suggest you make it a one day event
  • Going through different proposals, we discovered that User:Akwugo will be part of different projects in the same month. Can you get this User to comment on their availability in the discussion page?

We look forward to your response and adjustment on or before May 30th 2023. Thank you once again for your work within the Wikimedia Movement in Nigeria.

@SuperSwiftGood evening dear Sir. I write with regards to the concerns raised in my proposed project. I have made adjustments to major items as instructed Sir. Cost of food and t-shirt for awareness Creation have been slashed to a manageable tag and event is scheduled to hold by 10th of July. This brings down budget from what it was before to 302,000 only. Due to the high cost of necessities in Lagos, I hope I get approval from your honourable office. Akwugo will reply to her availability for the event as asked. Thank you Sir Winniejovita (talk) 20:01, 29 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Good day Winniejovita, hope this finds you well. We still await the response of User:Akwugo before we can further process the grant request. Please get the user to comment their availability here before 23:59 GMT+1 tonight. Many thanks. Ashioma (WUGN) (talk) 11:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Ashioma (WUGN)Dear Sir, I have informed Akwugo of your request. Akwaugo is an online facilitator whose participation will come in via zoom. I have informed her to respond to your request ASAP to enable your decision making. Thank you Sir. Winniejovita (talk) 11:53, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Confirm date of event[edit]

hello Winniejovita while we await the response from Akwugo, please confirm the date again. Is this event for June or July? Ashioma (WUGN) (talk) 12:31, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Ashioma (WUGN)Dear Sir, this event is slated for July, this is to make sure that all persons are available as agreed. Akwaugo whose schedule seems tight for now is likely going to be available then as she assured me her table will be cleared off tasks by that time. I choose this date to enable all participants get fully involved and without hassles too. July gives us ample time to prepare. Thank you Sir Winniejovita (talk) 13:49, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello Winniejovita, since it is slated for July, then we will fund it before the 3rd of July July. Your grants agreement form will be sent in June for processing. Thanks for your work with the Wikimedia Movement Ashioma (WUGN) (talk) 14:11, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Ashioma (WUGN) Yes Sir,I Confirm my availability on the slated date for the event. Akwugo (talk) 13:56, 30 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

New Changes[edit]

Dear User:Winniejovita

The Wikimedia User Group Nigeria community support fund committee has further reviewed your application, and they have some follow-up questions and requests regarding your application:

  • Reduce participants to 20.
  • The amount for hall rental should be reduced to 40,000 NGN
  • printing of event t-shirts should be reduced to 15,000
  • Data support will now be 30,000 NGN
  • Transportation costs for facilitators not attending in person (User:Akwugo) will not be funded, hence only 20,000NGN will be funded
  • Food and drinks at 60,000 NGN

This puts the budget at 200,000 NGN

  • PLEASE NOTE THAT A RECEIPT OF THE HALL PAYMENT MUST BE SUBMITTED AS PART OF YOUR REPORT


Please address the issues raised and effect changes before 11:59 PM of June 30. Many thanks.

A very good evening to you Sir. I have gone through your adjustments and have also made some improvisation on my part.
