Dear Jessephu

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:

  • Your project doesn’t have a timeline. You must include this before we proceed with funding
  • Reduce participants to 15 for easy transportation.
  • Adjust your budget to suit 15 people.
    • refreshment - 30,000NGN (2,000 x 15)
    • Internet - 22,500 (1,500 x15)
    • souvenir - 15,000
    • Airtime for Communication + Transportation +data for the two team members members - 30,000
    • bus rental - 50,000
    • prizes - 50,000

These new changes would put your budget at 230,500 NGN

  • In your resources, you made no mention of a venue for the training and upload session. Do you already have a hall for this?
  • Who and who is travelling and where are they travelling to and from. Transportation will only be funded if it’s a bus rental with a reasonable cost. Giving individuals funds for transport will not be approved.
  • ‘’Airtime for Communication + Transportation +data for the two team members’’ should be broken down and clearly explained

Make necessary adjustments before 11:59PM of June 30. Many thanks. Ashioma (WUGN) (talk) 09:36, 29 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Ashioma (WUGN)
The necessary adjustment has been made, and the budget has been reduced to the recommended amount. Below is the explanatory details of the questions asked
  1. since we are organizing a photo walk in Esie the training would come immediately after the photo walk , so there will be no need for a hall as we will be explaining to the participant on how to add pictures to wiki commons properly and adding pictures to wikipedia articles without pictures.
  2. we are renting a bus that will convey 15 participant along side the camera man to Esie town from Ilorin to and fro.
  3. Airtime for communication + Transportation + data
  • The airtime for communication will be for the team members especially the team member in charge of communication to always communicate effectively and also to communicate with the community that will be visited in order to ensure the smooth run of the photo walk. Each team members will be getting airtime worth 2,500 each.
  • Transportation , this will be for the 3 team members and the camera man to the venue for the photo walk(Esie) 16,000
  • Data of 3,000 for internet connection for each of the 3 team members.
