Andre,Just to clarify: Is it acceptable to have a task such as "Complete the translation of the MobileFrontend extension to the Azerbaijani language"?If it's acceptable, then it's possible to create hundreds of tasks (or instances) of this kind by looking at some important and large extensions and then checking their translation statistics. For example:Almost any language with less than 80% completion can be eligible.--

“We're living in pieces,
I want to live in peace.” – T. Mooreבתאריך יום א׳, 9 בספט׳ 2018 ב-17:15 מאת Andre Klapper <aklapper@wikimedia.org>:_______________________________________________<tl;dr>: Read https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in/Mentors and
add your name to the mentors table and start tagging #GCI-2018 tasks.
We'll need MANY mentors and MANY tasks, otherwise we cannot make it.
Google Code-in is an annual contest for 13-17 year old students. It
will take place from Oct23 to Dec13. It's not only about coding:
we also need tasks about design, docs, outreach/research, QA.
Last year, 300 students worked on 760 tasks supported by 51 mentors:

While we wait whether Wikimedia will get accepted, do you have any
translation tasks in mind?
Important: A translation task must not be possible to complete by
machine translation and the mentor must know the language in order to
review a student's work.
Tasks should take an experienced contributor 2-3 hours. Read

, ask on the talk page if you have any questions, and add your name to

Thanks!
