Wiki Loves Earth 2023 in Burundi

Hi, On the list of countries that participate in Wiki Loves Earth I read that in Burundi it is scheduled to start on 15 June. However on Commons:Wiki Loves Earth 2023 in Burundi there is still no landing page available. The contest therefore can't really start yet. If a landing page is created, please let me know as soon as possible! Romaine (talk) 15:31, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Romaine,

Hope you are doing well. Yes it was planned to start the contest on 15 June 2023, but we are still waiting for the WMF decision about the requested fund to run the event in Burundi. We have previously been emailed by the WMF letting us know that we have to wait until the review process is completed.

What can you suggest?

Thank you. Gilbert Ndihokubwayo (talk) 10:51, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
