User group count[edit]

Hello MKaur, the usergroup template only lists 134 affiliates, but I see you just updated the count to 135. What was the most recent one? –SJ talk  20:46, 14 July 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi SJ, Its Wikimedia Community User Group Sudan. -MKaur (WMF) (talk) 22:00, 14 July 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]


Inquiry about registration of Igbo Wikimedians User Group as Igbo Wikimedians Organizations[edit]

Hi MKaur, Trust you've been safe. We're in the process of registering Igbo Wikimedians User Group as a Not for Profit in Nigeria and the Cooperate Affairs Commission rejected the name ending in User Group as it doesn't meet the Not for Profit name registration requirements.

We intend to instead try registering it as "Igbo Wikimedians Organizations"

So I would like to find out if this will affect us as a User Group. Suggestions, advice and guidance on how to go about this name structure will be appreciated.

Regards.

Help needed over comments (Question) from a member of the Affiliations Committee.[edit]

Hi Manavpreet I hope this find you well. Am writing to you to ask help or clarity over the comments made on Open Heritage Foundation's talk page by Basak, we tried to reach out and find out if it is possible to share with us where the use of trademark is so we rectify it. As it stands, the group hasn't used WMF's trademark since it hasn't received a UG status. Best regards Communication office. --Isaac Kanguya✌ (talk) 06:46, 17 February 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Isaac Kanguya✌, The Open Heritage Foundation had earlier introduced them as a thematic organization which was later rectified. Basak wanted to ask for this rectification, but somehow missed checking the page updates. There are no trademark concerns. -MKaur (WMF) (talk) 19:31, 17 February 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Re: Notification of User Group Expiration - Renewal pending submission of reporting[edit]

Hello Manavpreet

I have posted the annual activity report of the Wikimedians of Peru User Group on the Wikimedia Affiliates Data Portal, which had previously been published on January 25 on the old reports page.

Here is the link to the 2020 report: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedistas_de_Per%C3%BA/Reports/2020

In case there is something pending please let me know.

Best regards --Ovruni (talk) 20:31, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ovruni, Thank you for submitting the report. I have updated the affiliate's compliance status.

Update contacts for US-GAP group[edit]

Hi Manavpreet, how do I update the contacts for a user group, Georgia Piedmont Wikipedians (US-GAP)? I would like to remove TLSuda and add @Jenniferjuniper: as a primary contact. Ganeshk (talk) 22:33, 15 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Also, Jennifer updated the reports pages and I have uploaded the activity to the affiliates portal. Can you please update our group's affiliation? Thanks, Ganeshk (talk) 22:34, 15 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please check your email[edit]

Dear Manavpreet. Can you please check your email for messages from @inbox.ru address? It requires urgent attention within hours & I'm concerned it was marked as spam. Thanks --Folow Up Asap (talk) 07:21, 24 September 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wikimedia Digitizaion User Group Request[edit]

Dear MKaur (WMF),
Can you please reactivate our user group because the CC-Zero-Project as a part of this group will continue his work in the end of January 2022. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic situation we didn't have budget for 2020/21. At the moment I work with a very low budget financed by myself and planned to ask for a rapid grant. I have reported the planned work in January 2022. Thank you -Namrood (talk) 22:02, 10 January 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Namrood, The affiliate status of the group lapsed in 2021 because of Non-compliance to affiliate agreement in terms of not submitting the affiliate's Annual activity report. I am sorry, but the only provision for the groups to attain the affiliate status is submitting a new application for User group recognition. Regards-MKaur (WMF) (talk) 21:55, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Updating User Group primary contact[edit]

Hello, I sent you a mail requesting for steps in updating primary contact for a user group. Please confirm receipt. Thanks. --Samatics (talk) 10:05, 8 June 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I received a confirmation from you on receiving resources. Regards-MKaur (WMF) (talk) 23:22, 13 June 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Dehalvi Wikimedia User Group[edit]

Hi @MKaur (WMF), could this group be marked as a former affiliate? The current contacts for the group include me and @Faismeen, who sent me an off-wiki message to enquire about this. As you are aware that I left the group long ago before forming DCW. The last report as far as I'm was sent for 2019-20, and since then no reports have been submitted, making the group incompliant. Looking forward to your guidance. ─ The Aafī (talk) 13:38, 19 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
