hi,
I think we need to do a lot more activities and experiment with many
more formats and understand incentives needed much better before
trying the money incentive.
That said, we hope to have a meetup, but it seems the entire city
might be running the Mumbai Marathon. So, let's see.

FWIW, the prize/incentive model for "Wiki

And in the Philippines too.
But if you are really going the prize/incentive route, you need to be
prepared to answer a lot of questions, and provide results to justify
involving money . As a coordinator of the the ongoing TamilWiki Media
Contest, i have been facing similar questions. At the end of the day, the
event needs to produce tangible results for wikimedia projects in form of
usable files uploaded to commons.
Agreed. Thank you, Bala.
