Re: [Wiki-research-l] NEEDS COMMENT ASAP: Wikimedia Project Grant Proposal to address BIAS!

Stuart,

As far as I know, grant applicants for WMF grants have never been
required to comment or share information regarding grant proposals
other than their own.

I think that in the past, WMF staff or grant review committee members
have solicited feedback for groups of grants.

I think that discussing solicitations for feedback regarding similar
grants is fine, but I request that the discussion be in a separate
thread. Soliciting feedback for groups of similar grants is a
different topic from the original topic of this thread.

Thanks,

Pine

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
   

   - Misinformation And Its Discontents: Narrative Recommendations on
   Wikipedia's Vulnerabilities and Resilience
   

   - Translatathon@Uniba: Developing Transversal Competences
   

   - Community Health Metrics: Understanding Editor Drop-off
   

   - Geogap in South Asia and Dutch Caribbean on Wikimedia projects
   

   - 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

Hi Stuart,

Ouch! That sounded a little pointy.

If anyone is curious and cannot find the link to the open project grant
proposals, you can use this link:

Best,

Jackie

For what it's worth, I'm completely fine with people requesting
feedback on research-related grant proposals to WMF on Research-l,
including individual proposals. My only objection here is to the use
of all caps.

I'm speaking only for myself and others may have different opinions.

Thanks,

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?

Hello,

I have a request, and this is only from my personal perspective and
not anything official. Please do not use all caps like this on
Wikimedia mailing lists. It comes across as SHOUTING, and what is
important or urgent for one person may not be important or urgent for
the dozens, hundreds, or thousands of other people on a Wikimedia
mailing list.

Thanks,

Pine
