Have you already checked https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Life_of_a_successful_proje… and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016 ? If yes, could you specify which kind of suggestions you are looking for? Thanks! andre -- Andre Klapper | Wikimedia Bugwrangler http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/

Hi! For that specific project there is already an student interested that has been solving bugs and that is talking to community members to draft a proposal for the project (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Haritha28/). I'd suggest starting by working on *Easy <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/169/> *bugs and meanwhile see what other projects don't have a student assigned that would be interesting for you. Thanks for chiming in! On Thu, Mar 10, 2016 at 4:24 PM, Rupinder Kaur <rupinderwadali(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Okay.

Where to find the code of any bugs which I choose to work on it.

How do I get to know that certain project is not assigned to any other student?

See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker . It links to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial which explains how to check out code repositories. To propose code changes in Gerrit, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access . Try to fix "easy" bugs: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Annoying_little_bugs .

See the "Assigned To" field in each Wikimedia Phabricator task. Happy hacking! andre -- Andre Klapper | Wikimedia Bugwrangler http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/

That specific task indeed misses information. I have commented on that task as it seems to be specific question about the task itself - see [1].
