I tend to agree with Mike, but not entirely. I'd say you should ask scholarship 
recipients if they object to their name being published. If they do (for any 
reason or no reason whatsoever), obviously you shouldn't publish their name; if 
they don't, you should publish it. Transparency is one of WMUK's goals (on 
paper), and allowing interested parties to evaluate how the charity spends its 
money, and feed back on especially good or poor decisions, is a big part of 
that.

Scholarships recipients are encouraged to openly participate prior, during, and 
after their attendance to a conference, but they may well have legitimate 
reasons why they may not want their receiving of scholarship or attendance to 
be known publicly in advance or at all. We have not and do not seek permissions 
from a travel scholarship applicant to publish their names, however they are 
free to do so if they wish. This is the same as for the Wikimedia Foundation 
when they are awarding scholarships to Wikimania.

Wikimedia Foundation rather than privately does not affect that.
