Hi everyone,
Over the past two years, Wikimedia technology has participated in the Google Season of the Docs https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs program (GSoD), which pairs technical writers with open source organizations to improve documentation. During our participation with the program, we have worked with talented and professional technical writers who have made valuable contributions https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Season_of_Docs/Past_projects to technical documentation.
Due to some programmatic changes with GSoD, we have decided not to participate this year. During this pause, we plan to look critically at the goals we have around technical documentation outreach and how we can best measure and demonstrate the impact and success of this outreach.
For ongoing outreach opportunities, we encourage you to continue to explore other Wikimedia outreach programs https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs.
Kindly, Sarah R. Rodlund and Alexandra Paskulin
