Hi Jessie --

Thanks for the detailed data. Were there any scholarships that were awarded to the broader free-knowledge movement, e.g. folks purely from CC or open data, without any Wikimedia affiliation?

Thanks,
Abbas.

And like every year, thank you Jessie for your detailed analysis of the WMF scholarships!!

I encourage all the chapters who didn't put their numbers yet to add them so we will have a full look on Wikimania delegations and scholarships.

Thanks!

Hi,

I know it may be too early to ask that, but I promise to send another notification related this issue in the coming months :)

We started last year to make the Wikimania costs more transparent. Wikimania is our biggest and the most expensive project. To ask our self "how much Wikimania costs" we can't only look on the project budget, as the total cost involve also scholarships (from WMF and chapters) and delegations of the chapters and the WMF.

We have tracking pages on Meta about Wikimania 2011 and Wikimania 2012 (sadly the organizer team of 2012 didn't updated their costs till now...), and I opened a new page for Wikimania 2013.

So again, I know to some of you this is too early to put the costs (although the size of the chapters and WMF delegation is known and could be update also now) - but if you can, do it now. If now, remember to do it what you have the numbers.

The data requested is your chapter\wmf delegation and the number of scholarships your chapters gave.

Thanks,
Itzik
