Google Code-in 2016 has been announced: A contest for 13-17 year old students. While we wait for Wikimedia to get accepted:
Take those 10 minutes to find (or update) some Phabricator tasks in your project(s) that would take an experienced contributor 2-3 hours.
* Do you have small, self-contained bugs you'd love to get fixed? * Does your documentation need improvements? * Does your user interface have small design issues? * Does your Outreachy/Summer of Code project welcome small tweaks? * Would you enjoy helping someone port your template to Lua? * Does your gadget use some deprecated API calls? * Do you have tasks in mind that welcome some research?
* Add the project "Google-Code-in-2016" and a comment in Phabricator tasks that you would mentor those tasks. * Tasks are welcome in five areas: Code; Outreach/Research; Documentation/Training; Quality Assurance; User Interface. * Add yourself to the table of mentors on the wikipage. * Make sure the task description provides pointers to help the student. * "Beginner tasks" (e.g. "Set up Vagrant"?) also very very welcome! * "Generic" tasks also welcome (e.g. "Choose and fix 2 UI messages from the task list in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T40638 ").
