Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Structured Data On Commons

Comments from DSaroyan (WMF)

Hello Jwale2, thanks for submitting this Rapid Grant request. We are excited about your plans to run a training session on structured data with your community members. After reviewing the grant application, I have a few questions and requests:

• You are required to provide links to on-wiki pages where you have informed the relevant communities about your proposed work in advance. Please add these links under question #2.
• Could you please provide more details on how you plan to reach out to potential participants? The response you have provided to question #3 seems too general for me.
• Do you have any experience in working with structured data on Commons? Could you please specify?
• We request more detailed information about the budget. Please include the number of units and unit prices to the budget breakdown.
• We think that the contingency costs are high. Please reduce them to 50 USD maximum.
• Please note that if approved, the remaining funds to your Open Festival 2.0 (US$120.48) grant will be deducted from this grant.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 09:32, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello Jwale2, thanks for your response. You haven't reduced the Miscellaneous/Contingency costs to 50 USD. Please kindly make this change and update the total requested budget. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 08:43, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello DSaroyan (WMF) changes have been made to the Miscellaneous/Contingency as requested but I have also made adjustment to the internet support (team and community) as well.Thanks Jwale2 (talk) 19:32, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
