Hi,
I am a 3rd year Engineering student from India, I have a few project ideas for gsoc, one is regarding enhancement of the extension : CentralNotice.
Here is a brief outline of the new features suggested
- Enabling Editing of Banners - Campaigns notifying only specific targeted users - For example, Requesting Users with more than 100 edits in wikipedia but no activity in last 3 months to continue contributing. - Simpler UI-based Banner creation (herehttp://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2012-March/058765.htmlis a discussion regarding the same) - More Statistics - putting namespace specific notices - Making the extension more usable with respect to needs of Wikimedia and Non-Wikimedia needs
However I think many more such features can be added.I would request Ryan Kaldari and Brion Vibber to give their feedback regarding this proposal. I also request Srikanth, who suggested many features mentioned here to comment if I have missed out any important features.
Hello Nischay, I'm on vacation for the next week, but please remind me to follow up on this after I get back on the 19th. At first glance these sound like good ideas, and I would probably be available to mentor on their development.
