Hello everyone,
TLDR; Wikimedia is participating in the Outreachy Round 27 internship program <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreachy/Round_27 > [1]. Outreachy's goal is to support people from groups underrepresented in the technology industry. Interns will work remotely with mentors from our community. We are seeking mentors to propose projects that Outreachy interns can work on during their internship. If you have some ideas for coding or non-coding (design, documentation, translation, outreach, research) projects, share them by Sept. 29, 2023 at 4 pm UTC here as a subtask of this parent task: <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T343871 > [2]
Program Timeline
As a mentor, you engage potential candidates in the application period between October–November (winter round) and help them make small contributions to your project. You work more closely with the accepted candidates during the internship period between December–March (winter round).
Important dates are:
-
Aug. 22, 2023 at 4pm UTC - Live Q&A for Outreachy mentors https://www.youtube.com/@outreachyinternships -
September 29, 2023 at 4pm UTC - Project submission deadline https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/wikimedia/
Guidelines for Crafting Project Proposals
* Follow this task description template when you propose a project in Phabricator: < https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/outreach-programs-projects%3E [3]. You can also use this workboard to pick an idea if you don't have one already. Add #Outreachy (Round 27) tag.
* Project should require an experienced developer ~15 days and a newcomer ~3 months to complete.
* Each project should have at least two mentors, including one with a technical background.
* Ideally, the project has no tight deadlines, a moderate learning curve, and fewer dependencies on Wikimedia's core infrastructure. Projects addressing the needs of a language community are most welcome.
