Endorsement from —Gwanki^📧

This proposal shows a strong dedication to increasing the presence of women's voices and representation in Hausa language content on Wikiquote. The project's goals are in line with the Wikimedia Community Fund's mission of encouraging diversity and inclusivity on the platform.

The proposal outlines a well-organized approach to engaging local communities, encouraging women's involvement, and producing high-quality content. The budget is reasonable and effectively allocated to support these goals. The timeline is realistic, and the expected outcomes are both measurable and attainable.

Furthermore, the proposal emphasizes the long-term benefits of creating a sustainable model for boosting women's participation in Hausa language content. This is important for addressing the current lack of diversity on the platform.

I strongly support this proposal and believe it has the potential to make a valuable and lasting impact within the Wikimedia community.

Endorsement from Sanusi Gado (talk)

The whole idea of bridging the gab between men and women participation in Hausa Wikiquote has been a challenge ever since Hausa Wikiquote evolved. We have been trying in several ways possible to see that the issue has been tackled. The she said program Phase I has played a vital role in bridging some of that gab, I was part of the organisers of the program and what I experienced was a beautiful development because we have a good number of women that engaged in the movement. Therefore, I believe Phase II of the program will be even more welcoming because the community where delighted with the movement, and they felt like this was an opportunity to be a part of it. Hence, I strongly support the continuity of this project. Sanusi Gado (talk) 16:53, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
