Hi Sylvain,
I would focus on getting sponsors for prizes. Including them on your
website etcetera is common, including them in Wikipedia is something you
don't want to do. Asking sponsors for something you can give away
usually works better than asking them for money. Having a lot of small
sponsors will enable you to have a lot of small prizes.
Another way of getting sponsorships is having an organization provide a
location (for free) to do the award ceremony.

In WLM Panama we are offering the sponsors almost the same as
Portugal: their logo on the local website, on the official poster, on
facebook and mentions on twitter. In addition, we are planning two
events (press conference and award ceremony) and we are offering the
sponsors to have their banners on these events and some might have a
booth to exhibit their products.
We prepared a sponsor kit (in spanish) that we could share if a page
is set up as Lodewijk suggested.

Monica

Hi,
In WLM Portugal we had sponsors for prizes, and we had the
sonspors logos on all our communication (website, poster,
facebook). They were also mentioned in the press-release. But, of
course, no Wikipedia articles about them :)

Hello,
We at Wikimedia France had some discussions about what we
want to ask
potential (commercial) sponsors to fund, and what
conditions
we can accept
from them.
I know some discussion about this occured during the last
Chapters
Meeting
in Berlin, but I don't know what was
concluded.
As we have to decide soon to have time to send requests to
potential
sponsors, we would like to have some more
advice... What do
you think about
commercial sponsorship ?
In NL the commercial sponsors we mainly had where sponsoring
prices. What
we offered them was a logo placed on the website, and the name
mentioned
on the price page, and for the big prices, to be mentioned in
the press
releases and if wanted to hand out the price themself on the
reward
ceremony. That is about how far we went.
But I think it is honest to give sponsors some of the
opportunity for
publicity via the communication about the event.
Regards,
Andre
