Hello! I am pleased to announce that Wikimedia has been selected as a mentoring organization for the upcoming Google Summer of Code (out of only 137 organizations selected for this round) and Outreachy rounds. Congratulations!
We have a phabricator board for possible projects[1] students can work on. Currently, only 7 projects are in the "Featured" column with well-defined project scope and mentors assigned. A lot more are sitting in the "Needs Discussion" and "Missing Mentors" columns, looking forward to your input. Enlisting some of the more discussed projects here: - Gadget Usage Statistics [2] - Out-of-date fact and statistics identification and review [3] - Cross-wiki watchlists [4] - Newsletter Mediawiki Extension [5] Your comments would be greatly appreciated in shaping these ideas into featured projects for the students. If you know of other projects which could be a good fit for a 3 month GSoC/Outreachy round, please feel free to add them to the board. If you think you can mentor one of these projects, please do comment on the ticket indicating so.
