Hi all,
Following Tim's request for people to speak up, if they would like to
contribute to MediaWiki, here it is:
I would liket to ask for developer-status and offer some of my
Wikipedia-time to write MediaWiki-PHP scripts.
To give you an idea about what you can expect from me:
- I worked 4 years in the database field.
- No experience with PHP, but my first look at the PHP-scipts gave me
the feeling that I will be able to understand how Wikipedia works and
how I can contribute, and I got Wikipedia up and running at home already ;-)
- I would not like to give up all my Wikipedia-Time to development, I
see my involvement more as a long-time contribution, something like 50%
- I contribute to Wikipedia nearly a year and I am admin in en/de/it.
The fields I would prefer to help:
-
http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikiImages.org
- DE/IT Server issues
- One central user-registration for all wikipedias (I don't know the
current status of this Idea)
- ...whereever I can give Brion and other Developers a hand on simple
tasks that just take time away from them and help me learn MediaWiki.
I look forward to your replies,
Fantasy :-)
