Grants talk:IEG/Population

Hi Игорь Темиров,

Thanks for your request! Although this isn't the type of thing that Individual Engagement Grants typically fund, we've now got another, quicker option for funding books for use in articles: The Wikipedia Library now funds book requests from editors around the world. I'd encourage you to post your request there, and I'm also pinging my colleague Ocaasi (WMF), who runs the Library, to assist you as needed. Meanwhile, I'm updating this IEG proposal's status to withdrawn to save you the trouble of going through IEG review. Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for your contributions to Russian Wikipedia. Best wishes, Siko (WMF) (talk) 17:20, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

@Siko (WMF): Siko (WMF) Hi, Siko Bouterse! Thank you for your attention! I wrote here. Best wishes, Игорь Темиров (talk) 18:54, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

@Siko (WMF): Hi, Siko! Forced to remind myself. I made a request. Ocaasi (WMF) asked me questions. I replied to them, but it's been 10 days and no torate. Advise what to do. With best regards Игорь Темиров (talk) 07:37, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the ping, Игорь Темиров - I will check in with Ocaasi and see how we can move things along. It tends to be simpler for The Library to purchase books directly and have them sent to you, rather than send money to Russia, so he is likely looking into whether the requested materials can be ordered from this end. We'll be in touch with more information there soon. Best wishes, Siko (WMF) (talk) 18:48, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
