Hi,
The individual grantee for Wikiconference India 2020 grant had secretly done a WMF Contract job with the Community Program Team some month ago. There was no public announcement for the job so I believe no selection process or hidden selection and no public documentation that he was working. My question is why was he given the job depriving other community members from India who want to work but apply and get rejected. What was the need of WMF to hide the process by not informing or documenting.
So on Wikiconference India grant WMF was applying to WMF and WMF was going to accept WMF grant. Atleast from WMF grant comments it looks because community blamed grant taking so much money.
To me, this is utter misuse of power and abuse of donation money.
Thanks,
