Requesting Editathon Info for Program Learning[edit]

Hello organizers and attendees of the Fredrick County History Editathon. The WMF Program Evaluation and Design team are finishing up the second round of program data collection on November 26th and we would love to include information on your editathon. Below are the questions which still need answers--could you please contribute any answers you know? Critical questions are highlighted in yellow; it should take about 3 minutes to fill in all the missing critical data. This voluntary program reporting helps us build an overview of programs and really helps with shared learning and capacity building for future editathons. If you have any questions, I would be very happy to chat, either through my talk page or at abittaker at wikimedia dot org. Many thanks! --Abittaker (WMF) (talk) 00:34, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
