I am looking for a space where I can set up projects like:
clean up a wiki category
set up book scanning tasks
track a survey stages (planning, translation, ad, analysis, etc)
Is phabricator a good place for that?
Since the very first day of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/, the blurb in the homepage reads
"*Phabricator* is a collaboration platform open to all Wikimedia and MediaWiki contributors. We focus on bug reporting and software projects. Non-technical initiatives are welcome as well."
That replies your question officially. :)
I guess that with appropriate project/subproject separation then the tasks wouldn't be mixed with coding tasks.
Just like nobody wants all coding tasks mixed either. :) Tasks get mixed or apart in the way you want with the use of projects/tags. Simple.
How is it being done at the WMF?
For instance, even if a hackathon is about code, *organizing* a hackathon is not. In fact Engineering Community doesn't write much code and we have 99% of our activity organized in Phabricator projects, tasks, and sprints.
