Wikimedia Deutschland is offering contracts for a couple of projects we feel are important. If you are interested in earning some money by helping Wikimedia to improve our Wikis, have a look at these projects:
* Evaluate the impact of using flagged revisions on the German Wikipedia - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Evaluate_the_impact_of_us...
* Rewrite CatScan, a tool for finding pages in a set of categories recursively, based on various criteria - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Rewrite_CatScan
* Store interwiki-links in the database, just like we already store interlanguage-links - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Store_interwiki-links_in_...
* Improve the Gadgets extension to allow for gadgets to be enabled per default, be restricted to specific user groups, etc - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Improve_the_Gadets_extens...
* Implement full support for TIFF files, including multi-page TIFFs, similar to how DjVu is handled - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Implement_full_support_fo...
If you would like to help with any of the above, please contact me at <daniel.kinzler AT wikimedia.de> and provide the following information: * Your real name and country of residence * How you plan to go about implementing the desired function * Any experience working with MediaWiki * How many working hours you would spend on it, and how much you ask for it * In what time frame you would be able to do the job

Thanks for helping us make the web a better place!
