Hello Programs & Events Dashboard users community!
The Programs & Events Dashboard has proven itself to be a key tool for many
community organizers, including Program Leaders that work in the fields of
education, GLAM, edit-a-thons, and in Affiliates.
As this tool matures, it is becoming necessary to make sure that it has the
community support it needs. One of the aspects of this is to formalize a
group of Dashboard Admins that can help the community by providing it with
basic support when needed.
We are therefore calling for volunteers that want to participate in this
field. Their expected responsibilities will cover the following:
-
Providing support to users and Affiliates
-
Monitoring & reporting on the use of the Dashboard
Dashboard Admins, like many other roles in the the Wikimedia community will
be required to sign a Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA) with the Wikimedia
Foundation, in order to ensure that data privacy policies are respected by
all.
Ideally, we want to cover all “major” languages, as well as all the
languages that actively use the P&E Dashboard.
All Admins will be required to take a (short) online training [1] on how to
be Admins, besides demonstrating knowledge on how to use the Dashboard.
The selection process will be as follows:
1.
Sign up to indicate your interest
2.
Take the online training [1]
3.
A selection committee composed of Vahid Masrour and Sage Ross will
select the first cohort of Admins.
If you think you can assist the movement by performing this function,

Vahid.
