Hi Chris
This, for me, is a diversity issue.
Over the years I only seem to give feedback on grants when prompted by
someone (it's been my only involvement in grants to date) and every
time a potential grantee has prompted me to take a look at their
grant, some other grant seems even better than the one I've been
prompted to take a look at.
I suggest that rather than encouraging potentially grantees to solicit
feedback on their grant, you encourage them to solicit feedback on all
the grants up for funding. This would tend to minimize of
well-connected, established people / groups getting more / better
feedback and thus more likely to be grant recipients.
cheers

Hi Stuart,
We ask Project Grant applicants to invite feedback from relevant
communities on their proposals, such as on this mailing list. While I
understand it is helpful for folks to be aware of all research-related
Project Grant proposals, this is something you should ask a program officer
for. It's not something an individual applicant should be expected to
provide. I am supporting the Project Grants round, so here is that list of
research-related proposals:
- Modelling and Populating Performing Arts Data in Wikidata
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Fjjulien/Modelling_and_Populating_Performing_Arts_Data_in_Wikidata>
- Misinformation And Its Discontents: Narrative Recommendations on
Wikipedia's Vulnerabilities and Resilience
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Ocaasi/Misinformation_And_Its_Discontents:_Narrative_Recommendations_on_Wikipedia%27s_Vulnerabilities_and_Resilience>
- Translatathon@Uniba: Developing Transversal Competences
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Uniba_-_Dipartimento_LELIA/Translatathon@Uniba:_Developing_Transversal_Competences>
- Community Health Metrics: Understanding Editor Drop-off
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Community_Health_Metrics:_Understanding_Editor_Drop-off>
- Geogap in South Asia and Dutch Caribbean on Wikimedia projects
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Michelle_Boon_%26_Layka100/Geogap_in_South_Asia_and_Dutch_Caribbean_on_Wikimedia_projects>
- Addressing Implicit Bias on Wikipedia
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/JackieKoerner/Addressing_Implicit_Bias_on_Wikipedia>
The community review period is ending soon, but we will still be reviewing
feedback through the committee review period starting on 17 March 2020.
With thanks,
Chris

If there's a deadline coming up for
supporting research proposals, how
about doing the right thing and post a link to all the research
proposals?

Hi Friends,
I submitted a Wikimedia project grant proposal for the 2020 round. I
would
really appreciate it if you could check it out
and endorse it if you
support the proposal.

The last day to share support is just days away. If addressing bias on
Wikipedia is important to you now is the time to speak up!
Thank you!
Best,
Jackie
