Kindly, find link to my user page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Shondhi_Singhal
1st and 2nd project are the projects that I would like to contribute even if GSOC or IPW dint exist.
I have installed mediawiki on my LAMP server. I have also cloned Mozilla bugzilla to the github. I have worked with lightbox in my previous web development projects so I have a base for the 1st project.
I tried to contact the mentor of the first project but there has been no response yet. I am here to learn and enhance my skills. Wikipedia gives me a platform where my work can reach to millions of its user. Kindly, guide me to start contributing.
Looking forward to the response.
Thanks, Shondhi Singhal DA-IICT Gandhinagar
