Hi!
I'm in the process of launching a community consultation for Education Program in Finland. I was wondering what is the state of the Programs & Events Dashboard (https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/)? Is it something we could use for our program starting next January?

Teemu,
The Dashboard is available now, and it tracks contributions across all language Wikipedias. So you should be in good shape!

Hi Teemu,
Like Jami mentioned, the tool is currently working, although it is still deemed to be "beta". My team is working with colleagues in Learning and Evaluation and Community Tech on roll-out plans that include better documentation for interested users. We hope some of this documentation would be ready for you when you start using the tool in January, but please play with it know to see if you have questions before then.
We are also eager to know if you encounter any bugs along the way!
Cheers, Tighe

Really? I thought that it is still under intensive construction? At least I received no information that we can start using it as the official platform. Does anyone know if all issues raised in Stockholm were addressed? If yes thats very good news!

Hi Vojtěch,
I believe we documented all the bugs from the Education Collab meetup in Stockholm last March in Phabricator, so I think the critical ones have been addressed. Please let me know if that's not the case! We are still collecting bugs since it's a beta tool (we've encountered a new RTL one in Farsi, for example).
The tool is definitely for the early adopter crowd, and documentation is limited, so we have not made any announcements. We are just responding to incoming requests at the moment (with caveats), and will make a more public push when we have more to share!

Although I do see at least four documented Phabricator tickets of mine which still seem open but this mailing list doesn't let me paste the link to the Phabricator query.
I now remember that 2-3 organizations were invited after the Stockholm meeting to take part in the beta testing (I think one of them was Armenian Wictionary). Is there any public feedback from these beta testers available?

Hello everyone!
Teemu asked just what I was going to write here :) Belarusians are eager to work and asked me about the Dashboard so I'm happy to tell them that it can be used safely.
Btw, please remind me, how much time it takes for translations made on translatewiki.net to appear on Dashboard and whether http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&group=wikiedu... is a right place for translations (message group is called wikiedudashboard and I was confused for a moment).
Thanks a lot!

Btw, please remind me, how much time it takes for translations made on translatewiki.net http://translatewiki.net to appear on Dashboard
As mentioned in https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Localisation_for_developers#Expor... , translations are exported every few days. I don't know how often the sysadmins update the code on the website you mentioned, though; whoever knows may want to add this information to https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Wiki_Ed_Dashboard , if that's the same project.
Nemo
Thanks, Vira and Nemo, those are both the correct links to the project on translatewiki.
Some initial documentation has been started on Meta: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs_%26_Events_Dashboard
Feel free to add to it if you start using the tool! We hope to have better materials available when we do a more public launch.
Vojtěch, we haven't received that specific feedback, but we're still in the beta period.
I would encourage anyone to continue to give feedback. In particular, we had identified some instances that represent important test cases (as I recall, we mentioned Armenian Wiktionary because of active WikiCamps and tracking activity on a non-Wikipedia wiki; RTL languages to make sure it works in all languages; etc.). At its core, we need the tool to be multi-wiki and multilingual.

I've been deploying to the Programs & Events Dashboard irregularly, usually every couple of weeks. I deployed the latest version about an hour ago.
Vojtěch's posts on Phabricator haven't been ignored; we've fixed some of the easier ones already, and I know that Danny Horn, who is managing the efforts of the WMF Community Tech team to make improvements to the Programs & Events Dashboard, has seen them all. For now, my understanding is that the top priority items on their agenda are:
1. To allow the dashboard to handle events — like edit-a-thons — that take place on a single day and have a specific start and end time, so that the statistics will reflect only what happens during the exact timeframe that organizers intend. 2. To fix some of the language that is still overly classroom-focused. 3. To build out a concept of "Campaigns" that will make it possible to create a single event in a larger campaign that follows a standard format for that campaign.
It sounds like the current trajectory will have the first and maybe second of those done by WikiConference North America, so the tentative plan would be to have the more publish launch the Tighe referrred to around then. But for education programs in particular, it's probably not going to be a significantly different by then.

Hello all,
As Tighe and Sage said, the Program and Events Dashboard is pretty much ready for beta users. There will be bugs that we haven't found yet, and there are features that we want to implement but haven't yet. But you can create a program on any wiki language project, such as Spanish Wikipedia or Armenian Wictionary. Sage gave a good breakdown of what we are working on right now, and we are hoping to make a small announcement to current program leaders early October (which is also when WikiConference North America is happening). Here's what you can do to get involved, if you are interested:
1) Translate the Dashboard interface: with the helpful info from Vira and Nemo in the thread above, you can translate the Dashboard into your programs' language(s).
2) Give feedback: particularly on things that things that are broken. (Feedback on things that would be nice to have in the future is good too but won't be addressed as immediately.) You can submit the bug on phabricator [1], or email it to Tighe or I, and we'll get it to the developers and put you in touch with them if they need clarification.
3) Join a bi-weekly check-in of beta users. Informal, half-hour meeting in which the developers update us on what they have fixed and are fixing, early adopters discuss how they are using the Dashboard, and everyone shares the bugs they found. Ideally, users who are more comfortable with phabricator can help submit the bugs found by users less familiar with phabricator. Email me if you are interested in joining. I will also be reaching out to some people who have been creating test programs on the Dashboard as well, so you may here from me again then.
Hope all of this helps, please let me know if I can clarify anything.
Woohoo for a (mostly) working Dashboard!
All the best, Amanda

Cheers, Amanda

Hello all,
As Tighe and Sage said, the Program and Events Dashboard is pretty much ready for beta users. There will be bugs that we haven't found yet, and there are features that we want to implement but haven't yet. But you can create a program on any wiki language project, such as Spanish Wikipedia or Armenian Wictionary. Sage gave a good breakdown of what we are working on right now, and we are hoping to make a small announcement to current program leaders early October (which is also when WikiConference North America is happening). Here's what you can do to get involved, if you are interested:
1) Translate the Dashboard interface: with the helpful info from Vira and Nemo in the thread above, you can translate the Dashboard into your programs' language(s).
2) Give feedback: particularly on things that things that are broken. (Feedback on things that would be nice to have in the future is good too but won't be addressed as immediately.) You can submit the bug on phabricator [1], or email it to Tighe or I, and we'll get it to the developers and put you in touch with them if they need clarification.
3) Join a bi-weekly check-in of beta users. Informal, half-hour meeting in which the developers update us on what they have fixed and are fixing, early adopters discuss how they are using the Dashboard, and everyone shares the bugs they found. Ideally, users who are more comfortable with phabricator can help submit the bugs found by users less familiar with phabricator. Email me if you are interested in joining. I will also be reaching out to some people who have been creating test programs on the Dashboard as well, so you may here from me again then.
Hope all of this helps, please let me know if I can clarify anything.
Woohoo for a (mostly) working Dashboard!
All the best, Amanda

Btw, please remind me, how much time it takes for translations made on translatewiki.nethttp://translatewiki.net http://translatewiki.net to appear on Dashboard
As mentioned in https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Localisation_for_developers#Expor... , translations are exported every few days. I don't know how often the sysadmins update the code on the website you mentioned, though; whoever knows may want to add this information to https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Wiki_Ed_Dashboard , if that's the same project.

I've been deploying to the Programs & Events Dashboard irregularly, usually every couple of weeks. I deployed the latest version about an hour ago.
Vojtěch's posts on Phabricator haven't been ignored; we've fixed some of the easier ones already, and I know that Danny Horn, who is managing the efforts of the WMF Community Tech team to make improvements to the Programs & Events Dashboard, has seen them all. For now, my understanding is that the top priority items on their agenda are:
1. To allow the dashboard to handle events - like edit-a-thons - that take place on a single day and have a specific start and end time, so that the statistics will reflect only what happens during the exact timeframe that organizers intend. 2. To fix some of the language that is still overly classroom-focused. 3. To build out a concept of "Campaigns" that will make it possible to create a single event in a larger campaign that follows a standard format for that campaign.
It sounds like the current trajectory will have the first and maybe second of those done by WikiConference North America, so the tentative plan would be to have the more publish launch the Tighe referrred to around then. But for education programs in particular, it's probably not going to be a significantly different by then.

One more question - will the current address of the dashboard (https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/) stay unchanged when the dashboard will be officially launched (whatever that means)?

There are no specific plans to change the address, but I'm guessing that we'll want to do that at some point — with redirects from the old location.

How can I join the program of my interest?
