    • Other:
  • Up to 14 points were assigned based on the answers provided to this multi-choice question.
  • The team was able to approve all applicants with four or more points.
  • To allocate the remaining 33 seats, Wikimedia Deutschland reviewed all 53 applications scoring between zero and three points and assigned up to two additional points based on the motivation of the candidates and taking geographical and thematic focus of applicants into account.
