Explain your plan

Tell us about how you contribute currently, and how you would contribute if WMF were to gift a used laptop to you.

• I happen to be the founder of Deoband Community Wikimedia, and I am seeking the equipment for the affiliate. The affiliate does have a community laptop but given its strategic development, it would be easier to have another laptop. This equipment would allow DCW volunteers contribute to some of the affiliate's necessary tasks such as making training videos, graphics etc.

Modification on 11/03/2024: DCW has stable acitivity plans available and this equipment would ease a lot of our tasks, as we plan to implementing our plans. Through our programs and activities, DCW has made an impact within the community during the last year and the gifted equipment would help us do more of it through our upcoming plans.

Affected projects

Add the existing Wikimedia projects (Wikipedia, Commons, etc.) and language versions that you seek to impact with this equipment.

• Wikipedia, Commons, Wikiquote etc (thematic, related to DCW)

Work you're proud of

Show us (through links) some of your best Wikimedia work, on or off wiki, to help us get a sense for the kind of work you do. (no more than 3 or 4 links at most, please.)

• en:Mahmud Hasan Deobandi (GA)
• en:Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind (GA)
• several accomplishments of the affiliate on-wiki are here on this page
• The Deoband Community Wikimedia proposes a six-monthly research plan for its growth trajectory (Diff blog)

Modification on 11/03/2024: I am a sysop at Wikimedia Commons and Urdu Wikimedia, however, specifically with regards to the DCW - the work I'm most proud of is establishing and streamlining the DCW Conversation Hour and the Heritage Lens program.
