===Additional information by applicant===
{{ping|Mjohnson (WMF)}}
Firstly, many thanks for reviewing our project grant proposal. We would request you to kindly convey our thanks to everyone who reviewed it. We acknowledge the detailed comments provided to us, it takes time and energy and we wholeheartedly appreciate that.
As we read through the comments, we understand there has been some communication gap, perhaps, we are not able to pen down our ideas with precision. Of course, there are some inputs which we recognize and without a doubt would change them as desired.
'''About sustainability -'''
This is just a pilot project to be done in New York. If successful, it can be rolled out all across the globe considering the external agency <Government of India> remains same and they have control over all Indian Embassy.
Hence, the Wikimedia’s plan for long term partnerships.
On Contacts - Would request for more time to produce evidence. We can connect WMF official with officials to check the authenticity as well commitment.
'''About community support -'''
The community resentment was due to incomplete information. If one reads through re-updates were provided on Hindi village pump and discussion was initiated. Post admins - few editors (also admins) have endorsed the proposal. May find it on the endorsement page.
Many members believed that this project will kill other Hindi grants and they believed that WMF provides limited funding per language. This is not the case, WMF clarified it and few members added endorsement after getting answers from WMF.
You may read Hindi Community Usergroup objection/concerns here about funding status and implications - [[Grants talk:IdeaLab/Hindi Wikipedia Outreach#Objections of Hindi Wikimedians User Group|https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants_talk:IdeaLab/Hindi_Wikipedia_Outreach#Objections_of_Hindi_Wikimedians_User_Group]]
We have addressed these concerns and Hindi user group founding members have supported/endorsed this proposal.
'''About Budget -'''
The budget has been prepared keeping in mind the legislations in New York pertaining to minimum wages. A discounted budget has now been presented below.
'''More detailed Goals :'''
We also received feedback from community members and few senior members advised us to focus on sister projects like Hindi Wikiquotes along with Hindi Wikipedia.
[[File:Hindi Wikiquote target 2018 - New York outreach.png|center|frame|536x536px|Expected outcome - Hindi Wikiquotes ]]
''<u>Additional</u>'' Wikiquotes targets -
# Number of events: '''6 Spread over a period of 3 months'''
# Number of participants: '''~10 participants assigned to each experienced team member'''
# Number of new editors: '''~10 per workshop''' ('''''new editors''''' as in those who will be able to add quality content to Wikiquotes or improve the existing articles)
# Number of articles created or improved: '''10 to 15 per Workshop'''
# Total new articles : '''50'''
# Number of repeat participants (for projects that include a series of events): '''10'''
