[Wikimediaindia-l] WikiConference India 2011 - Scholarships

Applications are invited for
travel/boarding scholarships for WikiConference India 2011. There are a very
limited number of such scholarships, and it is also possible to apply for
partial assistance, in case you can handle part of the costs on your own -
doing so will ensure that more Wikipedians will be able to get
assistance. Provisions have been made for participants from special interest
groups. Applications will be welcomed until Aug 15, and the decision process
will be completed by the first week of September 2011. Please study the form
carefully before submission.

We look forward to plenty of active participation at the conference, with
the help of all Wikipedians.

Hi Vickram,


I filled out the scholarship form early this morning (an hour after you
posted it). Can I know if the form was submitted successfully? Thanks!

Yes - but please let us not use this list for such private queries. We have
a number of submissions, and the form seems to be working fine. If anyone
has a general problem with making it work, that is a valid query for this
list.

We need to step up the availability of the form in different languages, for
which I urge listmembers here to please spread the word to the language
lists. As a corollary to this, we need to be sure that the googledoc form
will allow us to merge all the submissions in different languages, and if
this feature is not possible, we need to evolve a process for harmonisation
of the different spreadsheets/forms. People with expertise on using the
forms feature on Google spreadsheets please do volunteer.

2011-07-23 Thread wheredevelsdare

Ramesh,

We do expect a significant amount of applications though the actual number of 
scholarships in limited. I cannot give a number at present as it the final 
number depends on mathematical calculations.

The idea is to provide full or partial support to those Wikipedians who really 
want to attend but cannot afford it monetary wise. For those who can bear their 
own cost - of travel or accommodation or have someone they can stay with in 
Mumbai, we encourage them not to apply for scholarships or apply for part 
scholarships as necessary so that those who need it most can benefit from it. 

In true Wikipedian spirit, we assume utmost good faith and request everyone 
applying for the scholarships to practice the same.

Kind Regards,

From: rames...@gmail.com
