Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Icem4k/Wikipedia Social Media Campaign/Report

Report accepted

Hello Icem4k, thank you for submitting this final report. We are sorry that you could not meet the initial target of having 100 participants, but appreciate your time and efforts on this project! I have reviewed your report and have the following questions and comments:

• Since the remaining underspend is very small (ZMW 1.68), I confirm that you can use it toward any mission-aligned activity.
• You have mentioned in the report that the reason for low participation was the fact that the participants did not believe whether or not the contest was real. What would you do differently to ensure that the ads or campaign have a better impression on the audience?
• Could you please include in the report the links to the submitted and winning videos?
• How and who have selected the winners? How many prizes have you offered?
• It’s great news that you have established a new partnership! How will the telecommunications company support your future activities?

Thank you again for your contribution to the Wikimedia Movement. I have accepted your final report and expense documentation. This grant is now complete. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 11:37, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi DSaroyan (WMF)

1. Will forward the remaining funds to Wiki Loves Africa 2020 Zambia.
2. Well what I plan to do differently the next time we run such a project is to engage the local radio and television stations to run a free or paid for program/Ad cause as at now people now kmow about the Wikipedia Community is present in Zambia. Oh and some people where telling me to run a number of campaigns just to get the word out.
3. I will add the link.
4. Okay so the winners where selected weekly in the first week from Friday to Friday the videos submitted in that week the one with most likes and views would win a phone for that week and the overall winner had to have the most likes views and shares this bescuse that particular video had a wider reach that everyone else. We gave out 3Mobile phones and a lap top this in also included water bottles from manic but for the grand winner he got a wikimania Stockholm flask and they each got a I love Wikipedia T-shirt
5. Liquid telecom is involved in providing internet services and so they offered a sim card that has special rates when we purchase internet data at a low price. And they said they will provide all the help we can get when we have another awareness campaign.
