Dear Wikimedians,
We hope you are well.
This is a gentle reminder that the scholarship application deadline for the Indic Wikimedia Hackathon Bhubaneswar 2024 is approaching. The due date is just a week away. Please submit your applications on or before 2nd November 2024 (Saturday).
This event is hosted by the Indic MediaWiki Developers User Group (aka Indic-TechCom) in collaboration with the Odia Wikimedians User Group and will take place in Bhubaneswar from December 20-22, 2024.
Wikimedia hackathons are spaces for developers, designers, content editors, and other community stakeholders to collaborate on building technical solutions that help improve the experience of contributors and consumers of Wikimedia projects. The event is intended for:
Technical contributors active in the Wikimedia technical ecosystem, which includes developers, maintainers (admins/interface admins), translators, designers, researchers, documentation writers, etc.
Content contributors who have an in-depth understanding of technical issues in their home Wikimedia projects, such as Wikipedia, Wikisource, Wiktionary, etc., and can give developers their insights into how the tool/application/template should work.
Contributors to any other FOSS community or have participated in Wikimedia events in the past, and would like to get started with contributing to Wikimedia technical spaces.
We encourage you to follow the essential details & updates on Meta-Wiki regarding this event.
