در حالی که برنامه های کاربردی بر اساس منطقه در حین فرآیند مرور گروه بندی می شوند، یک فرایند بررسی استاندارد برای تمام برنامه های کاربردی استفاده می شود، صرف نظر از مبدااین فرآیند شامل سه مرحله بررسی می باشد:
مرحلۀ اول: درخواست تمام شرکت کنندگان توسط سه نفر یا بیشتر مورد بررسی قرار خواهند گرفت و هر کدام به طور مستقل با توجه به ضوابط مرحلۀ اول نمره ی صفر(مردود) یا یک(قبول) به هر درخواست می دهند. درخواست هایی که توسط سه بازبین و یا بیشتر قبول شوند می توانند از مرحلۀ اول بگذرند. درخواست هایی که توسط دو بازبین و یا کمتر پذیرفته شوند به مرحلۀ دوم نمی روند. تمام شرکت کنندگان از طریق ایمیل از اینکه درخواستشان پذیرفته شده و یا رد شده باخبر خواهند شد. مرحلۀ دوم: درخواست های باقی مانده توسط حداقل سه بازبین با جزئیات بیشتر بررسی خواهند شد. هر بازبین مستقلاً درخواست را بازبینی می کند و با توجه به ضوابط مرحلۀ دوم نمرۀ کلی به آن می دهد.
- Phase 3: The Scholarship Committee, in close collaboration with the Wikimedia Foundation, will determine the total budget available and how this will be distributed to each region, with estimations made on how much money a particular recipient will require (for example, someone attending Wikimania 2014 from South Africa will require more resources than someone attending from France). Applications will be ranked using phase two scores on a region-by-region basis; those receiving the highest scores in each region, by default, will be the recipients of scholarships. In the event of identical or very similar scores between applicants, those that have not previously received a scholarship will be favoured over those that have, and those that received a scholarship many years ago will be favoured over those that received one in recent years. Further adjustments between high scoring applications may also be made to ensure there is fair distribution between countries in each region.
Following the completion of phase three, a decision will be issued by e-mail to all remaining applicants as to whether their application has been successful or has been declined. Those with successful applications are given the opportunity to confirm their attendance at Wikimania 2014 and their acceptance of the awarded scholarship. A small number of applicants will be placed on a waiting list; these applications may be awarded a scholarship at a later date depending on the acceptance rate of successful applicants and whether resource use by scholarship recipients is as estimated.

While descriptions are only provided for even numbered scores, odd numbered scores may also be awarded when an applicant is judged to fall between two descriptions. These scores are then averaged and weighted to give an applicant's total score.

ملاقات با دریافت کننده بورس تحصیلی قبلی
ما شرکت کنندگانی از سراسر دنیا داریم. تعدای از آنها را اینجا می بینید و از تجربیاتشان یاد می گیرید و به ما می گویید که چطور از دیگر شرکت کنندگان پیشی گرفتید.
I taught math for 33 years. My students kept me feeling young, and reminded me how much I love my country.
When I retired, my son was worried I would get rusty. So he introduced me to Wikipedia. He explained that anyone can contribute, and showed me how.
Since then, I've created articles on quadratic functions, probability, charts, graphs and more. I've made 7,000 edits in all.
I write in Tamil: my favorite language and my mother tongue, spoken by 85 million people across the world. I've also uploaded more than 6,000 audio files to Wiktionary, demonstrating proper pronunciations for common Tamil words. Now, more people can share in this beautiful language.
As a teacher and a mother, I was always busy. But now that I'm retired and my children are grown, my time is my own — all 24 hours of it! And I spend every day on Wikipedia.
I'm a volunteer. No one pays me. But helping edit Wikipedia has become my life's work. Even though I'm not in the classroom, I'm still doing what I care about most: helping a new generation of students learn, in the language I love.
Today, there is a gap between the developing world and the developed world. It's not about money, and it's not about power. It's about knowledge.
If you follow the news, you probably remember reading about the Arab Spring. For young people like me and my friends, it was the beginning of a new era. As momentous events happened, we were obsessed with the news, following up second by second. We were checking our phones, Facebook, Twitter.
And I was writing on Wikipedia. I love Wikipedia because it's impartial; it's the best source for up-to-date information from a neutral point of view. I looked at CNN, Al Jazeera and the BBC, searching for the most reliable sources. Then I added updates in real time.
It's incredible. Everyone could know what was happening, as it happened. We could share the truth with people across the world.
We want a world that is more open, more educated, and more free. We want a world where knowledge is available to anyone that seeks it.
It's time for us to change our world. Will you help?
My wife and I have a friendly competition. You see, my wife speaks Zulu, I speak Xitsonga, and our children are going to have a tough time choosing which language to use.
As you can imagine, each of us hopes our children will choose our own language. But I have a secret weapon: Wikipedia.
I believe a language should be able to break the cyber barrier. If it's not on the internet, it's a dying language. By contributing to Xitsonga Wikipedia, I help keep my language alive.
In the 1900s, a Swiss missionary began cataloging the culture and artifacts of the Xitsonga-speaking people. His two-volume book is now in the public domain. I am translating this text into Xitsonga, supplemented with my own knowledge.
Every language is part of the human feeling. All the languages that have ever been in the world, they define us as humans. When a language dies, it takes something with it.
Whether my children choose my language or my wife’s language, the important thing is that they have the choice. And as long as we keep our languages alive through Wikipedia, they will.
