Hello Programs & Events Dashboard users community!
The Programs & Events Dashboard has proven itself to be a key tool for many community organizers, including Program Leaders that work in the fields of education, GLAM, edit-a-thons, and in Affiliates.
As this tool matures, it is becoming necessary to make sure that it has the community support it needs. One of the aspects of this is to formalize a group of Dashboard Admins that can help the community by providing it with basic support when needed.
We are therefore calling for volunteers that want to participate in this field. Their expected responsibilities will cover the following:
Providing support to users and Affiliates
Monitoring & reporting on the use of the Dashboard
Dashboard Admins, like many other roles in the the Wikimedia community will be required to sign a Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA) with the Wikimedia Foundation, in order to ensure that data privacy policies are respected by all.
Ideally, we want to cover all “major” languages, as well as all the languages that actively use the P&E Dashboard.
All Admins will be required to take a (short) online training [1] on how to be Admins, besides demonstrating knowledge on how to use the Dashboard.
The selection process will be as follows:
Sign up to indicate your interest
Take the online training [1]
A selection committee composed of Vahid Masrour and Sage Ross will select the first cohort of Admins.
