Extension request[edit]

Is your final report due but you need more time?



Extension request[edit]

New end date[edit]

October 31, 2018

Rationale[edit]

The initial proposal was a six months project, but we created a new strategy that involved training the WiR, creating manuals of this training, and establishing a flexible part-time job that allowed us to do more activities with the same budget.

Request approved[edit]

Approving a new end date of October 31, 2018. Glad you're adapting your plan to make best use of the resources available. --Marti (WMF) (talk) 06:39, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

Also, noting here that the new final report due date is 30 November 2018. -- Best, JTud (WMF), Grants Administrator (talk) 19:00, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Extension request[edit]

New end date[edit]

Project end date stays the same (October 31, 2018). Final report: February 28, 2019.

Rationale[edit]

The project is over but we are still analyzing our outcomes and looking for the best way to present our experiences without repeating what has been said already.

Request 2 approved[edit]

This extension request for February 28, 2019 has been approved, thank for you continuing to work to finish your project analysis and consider how to organize them for this report. I JethroBT (WMF) (talk) 20:59, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
