Hi all,
I'm an Outreachy https://www.outreachy.org/alums/ intern and as a part of the internship, I'm working on a project - WikiCV https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiCV.
Through this project we (my mentors - Gergő Tisza and Stephen LaPorte and I) want to create a contribution summarizing tool which (unlike the existing ones that focus on statistics and are hard to interpret for someone not familiar with Wikipedia editing) highlights contributions in an easy-to-understand manner.
I'm writing this to gather inputs from prospective users of this tool, that is all the Wikipedia editors!
Basically I want to understand what all things would you like to see in a tool like this? Or what all would you write in your Wikipedia CV?
You can give in your inputs through mail (I'd be more than happy to get one :)) or fill out this form https://goo.gl/forms/slmOreey5iVPWzFx1. My work is largely dependent on your inputs, so please pour in your comments/views. Your help will be quite appreciated!
Eagerly waiting for your inputs :) Thanks, Megha Sharma
Hi Megha,
First, sorry I don't really have an idea of what I would like to see appear on such a CV generation tool, as I don't personally feel any need for such an automate.
But I'm interested to know what are the motivation which led to launch this project. Certainly they are people looking for such a tool, so simply I would like to consult discussions that led to this project, if any is available.
I would also like to know what will be the scope of this project, if any as been defined. For example, will it be possible to generate a CV for an IP or range of IP? And in the same idea of grouping, will it be possible to generate CV from several accounts (for example to include bot contributions)? Did the project inception considered possible side effect on privacy to make sure it won't conflict with Privacy policy[1]?
My best wishes to you in realizing this project in a fashion relevant to your addressed users. :)
