Hello,
Good initiative. I'd like to share a couple of India-related stories I can
think of and will get back with that (or I'll email you in person, if that
works, kindly let me know). Thanks for planning this.
A side-comment: It does not look good if links, specially the privacy
policy link which states "your privacy is important to us " is itself
masked by YAMM (yet another mail merge), that's a third party. I used the
MMS tool a few times a long time ago, did not like it. They track too many
things like email clicked, email opened etc.
I was also not aware that Qualtrics records IP addresses.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
this is a great initiative and I would love to nominate at least 2
projects to spread their energy and motivation as well as to acknowledge
their work.
However, as a European with some attentiveness for data reduction and data
economy I wonder why you have to retain contact information from me and the
nominees unless we ask you to delete them. I got a first rejection from a
potential project just because of this kind of data collecting. That’s sad
and I believe we as a community could do better.
Alice.

Hello Wikimedians around the world
In these difficult times many of us miss the chance to connect in person
with other Wikimedians. We miss the events and meetings where we could
learn from and about each other. So we thought to use this time to learn
from each other more about the great people that make up our communities.
We would like to give some of them a bit of a spotlight in our virtual
spaces like our blogs and social media in the absence of physical
connection points.
Do you know a community member who has accomplished something new or
inspiring in the last year? Someone who you think the rest of the
community
should know about? If so, please take a few
minutes and nominate them in
the survey below.
Let us know about their inspiring work, whatever form it took, online or
offline. This can include but is not limited to adding important content
directly to one of our projects, encouraging and supporting others in
adding content, teaching the public about Wikipedia or other Wikimedia
projects, building partnerships, or organizing events and helping your
local community thrive. We are also curious to learn about the different
ways people enrich our movement!
Use the following link to take the survey.

Thank you in advance for helping us highlight more wonderful people and
accomplishments from all over the world!
Your privacy is important to us and is governed by the linked privacy
statement. In this survey, we will request your contact information and
that of the individual you are nominating. Please be sure that the person
you are nominating understands you are providing us with their
information.
We will use this information to get in touch with
nominees, should they
meet our selection criteria. We will retain this contact information
indefinitely unless you or the person you nominate request its deletion
or
update it in a subsequent survey; please see the
privacy statement
