Dear Patience Thank you for alerting us to this matter. I believe you would not have received this message below from Ndahiro Derrick - thank you Derrick for taking action.
This seems to be a case of a new person being too enthusiastic and making an unintentional mistake- there does not seem to be any ill intent. User:Moumou82 has reverted all the edits that the newbie did, and your submission is re-assigned to you (User:Salimasi) as the original creator. There should be no more confusion. Good luck with the rest of the process! warmest Isla On Sun, 19 Feb 2023 at 16:11, Ndahiro Derrick Alter <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Abel for bringing our community ‘s attention to this issue though ( > I don’t think using all these avenues before reaching to the user who did > that was really necessary but I understand the context ) > > I just had a phone call with user:Nkunda102 , he is newbie with no skills > of editing the metapage, he regrets his actions and will write a formal > apology to the original author and the team receiving grants . > > Best regards > > On Sat, 18 Feb 2023 at 13:10 Abel MBULA <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Forward as received >> >> FYI dear community member >> >> Abel Lifaefi Mbula >> Free Software Dev >> Free Culture Enthousiast >> >> Please do not send me Microsoft Office/Apple iWork documents.
