Hi everyone,
(Apologies for cross-posting.)
As part of the upcoming celebrations surrounding Wikipedia's 20th birthday,
the Wikimedia Foundation is publishing a short, optional survey that will
help us understand the needs of people who would like to host a celebration
event.
https://wikimedia.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4GyxYcdRSSM5M8J
The survey is expected to take three to five minutes to fill in and will
remain open until 23:59 UTC on Wednesday, 30 September 2020. Before taking
the survey, please review the privacy statement policy [2].
We would also like to announce that the Foundation will be supporting
Wikipedia 20 anniversary celebration events through multiple grant programs:
- *Rapid Grants* [3] to support celebration events up to 2000 USD. More
information on them will be available next month.
- *Additional funding for Conference & Events grantees* (e.g. for a
regional or thematic conference) who wish to incorporate a celebration
event to an existing conference.
- *Conference & Event Grants* [4] to support celebration events for more
than 2000 USD.*
* Round one applications for conference & event grants is now open until *28
September 2020*.
On behalf of the Wikipedia 20 team,
Chris Schilling
