Hello everyone,
We want to share with you about the *Small Wiki Toolkits*, one of the focus
areas planned for Wikimania Hackathon 2019. Some activities in this focus
area will also be conducted at the main Wikimania conference. With this
focus area, we hope to support wikis & their communities who don’t have
many technical contributors and help to connect developers and editors from
different wikis.
Editors and developers alike are invited to drop by, bring questions, offer
& get technical support - for example on wiki configuration settings, bots,
gadgets, templates - & meet during Hackathon & Wikimania to exchange on a
variety of topics :-)
You can contribute to different areas of this focus area: Hacking,
Documentation and Technical Support. Read more here for details:

*Between now and until Wikimania*, here are some things that you can do to
get started and to connect with fellow participants:
