Hi all,
considering the short time, is it possible to know if the jury tool will be provided also this year?
Is it possible to have an access to become familiar with it?

Hello Wikimedians,
We are excited to announce the launch of a new Wikimedia Foundation grants
program, Rapid Grants!
Rapid Grants fund Wikimedia community members -- individuals, groups, or
organizations contributing to Wikimedia projects -- to organize projects
throughout the year for up to USD 2,000. Projects can include experiments
or standard needs that don't need broad review to get started. Applications
are reviewed weekly by WMF staff.
Read more about the new program and apply here:

For more information about next steps and important dates for the grants
program redesign, please visit:

Cheers,
Alex

Why should you serve on a grants committee?

Make a big difference by supporting applicants and grantees that are
doing projects to improve content and increase participation across the
Wikimedia movement.

Build yours skills and experience by participating in our innovative
participatory grantmaking programs.
-
Interact with volunteers from all over the world.
Do you know somebody who you think would be perfect for this role?

Hi all,
I'm developing a new tool for graph of WLE and WLM in Tool Labs:
http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves
The tool uses a module in Commons
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Module:WL_data> to know what countries
are in each event and the campaign period of each country. It is not
configured for WLE 2016 yet, I will make it in the next days (if someone
want to help, feel free to edit the module).
I had plans to make functions for voting on images and for show images
locations in map, but I didn't have time to develop these functions before
WLE 2016.
If someone have some questions, suggestions or bugs to report, please
contact me at IRC on channles #wikilovesearth, #wikilovesmonuments or
#wikipedia-pt-tecn, or create a task in phabricator
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=tool…>
