Liangent and Micru have proposed to use Code-in to get a bunch of
wikitext templates rewritten in Lua. Let's do it! I also believe that
this is a very good type of task for Google Code-in.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-In#Lua_templates
Please list there wikitext templates that you want to seee rewritten in
Lua.
It is important to have a couple of meta-mentors for this Lua templates
category of tasks. Ideally we should get also involved the maintainer(s)
or original author(s) of the templates, so they can help checking that
the end result fulfulls the requirements of the original template.
There is no need to file bug reports about each template at this point.
Linking to the templates is enough for now.
PS: those of you involved in the subcommunity of templates writers,
please help spreading this call. We need help mentoring, and in exchange
we can get a lot of fresh help getting tasks done.
