FYI: Wikimedia has been accepted as one of 25 organizations in Google Code- in (GCI) 2017! GCI is a contest for 13-17 year old students to work on smaller tasks on your To-Do list. It starts on Nov 28th. We need at least 75 tasks by then. Code, docs, research, design, QA, anything (except translations)! What you should do: BECOME A MENTOR: 1. Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in/2017 2. Add yourself to the mentor's table. 3. Get an invitation email to register on the contest site. IDENTIFY AND PROVIDE SMALL TASKS: 1. Create a Phabricator task (which would take you 2-3h to complete) or pick an existing Phabricator task you'd mentor. 2. Add the "Google-Code-In-2017" project tag. 3. Add a comment "I will mentor this in #GCI2017". Feel free to directly create tasks on the GCI website yourself once you've registered. (We can also import them for you.) If your project does not use Phabricator: Just create tasks directly on the GCI site. Looking for task ideas? Check the "easy" tasks in Phabricator: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Annoying_little_bugsoffers links. Make sure to cover expectations and deliverables in your task. And once the contest starts on Nov 28, be ready to answer and review contributions quickly (within 36 hours). Any questions? Just ask, we're happy to help. Thank you for your help to get young people into FOSS projects! andre -- Andre Klapper | Wikimedia Bugwrangler http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/ _______________________________________________ African-wikimedia-developers mailing list African-wikimedia-developers(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/african-wikimedia-developers
