Thank you for the reply and suggestion. I will decide one idea among these
and will be in touch. I just like to know what are the main points that my
draft should concentrate on.
Thank you,

Hi,
I am sandeep and pursuing my MS by Research at IIIT-Hyderabad.
I am thinking of applying for GSoC this year. I have gone through
the
ideas page of mediawiki and find the following ideas quite apt for me to
work on.
1. Visual Editor Plugins.
2. Proofread extension needs to be refactored.
3. Prototyping inline comments.
Good! I recommend you to choose one and go for it, asking or proposing
more details in the related bug reports and drafting a proposal in your
user page.
Which one, this is something you should decide by yourself. Which project
would you like to do even if GSOC wouldn't exist? You seem to have the
basic knowledge to work on any of them, and they have good mentor coverage.
As far as we know nobody has "claimed" any of these projects. Although we
don't assure exclusivity to any student, if you are already working on a
proposal with an impressive draft you will probably encourage other
students to look elsewhere.
PS: note that for for Visual Editor Plugins you would still need to choose
a specific plugin.
