I'm a little late to the welcome wagon, but I wanted to send a whole hearted welome to GSoC and Outreachy candiates that were accepted, I'd like to introduce myself to you, candiates, I'm Zppix (pronounced Ze-EP-Piks and no thats not my real name) I'm from United States, I'm a volunteer developer for WMF, and I also volunteer on en wiki, and occasionally other projects, I'm usually around IRC in most development-related WMF channels, under the nickname Zppix, so if you need to ask a question feel free to ask me as well as your mentors, I really hope you enjoy your time here and stay to help out far long after this round of GSoC/Outreachy is over. I look forward in crossing paths during development or on phabricator, I hope you all have a great summer as well.
Thanks, Zppix Volunteer Developer for WMF www.enwp.org/User:Zppix On Sun, May 21, 2017 at 6:18 PM, Alexander Jones <[email protected]> wrote: > Srishti Sethi wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > Please join me in welcoming Wikimedia's accepted candidates for Google > > Summer of Code 2017 and Outreachy Round 14! > > > > Google Summer of Code 2017 > > > > 1. > > > > Alexander Jones, Texas, United States, Implement Thanks support in > > Pywikibot <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161426> - John Mark > > Vandenberg > > 2. > > > > Amrit Sreekumar, Kerela, India, Improvements to ProofreadPage > Extension > > and Wikisource <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161111> - Yann > > Forget, Tpt > > 3. > > > > Feroz Ahmad, New Delhi, India, Add a "hierarchy" type to the Cargo > > extension <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161609> - Yaron Koren, > > Nischayn22 > > 4. > > > > Harjot Singh Bhatia, New Delhi, India, Adding Data storage feature and > > upgrading Quiz extension <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T160257> > - > > Marielle Volz, Sam Reed > > 5. > > > > Harsh Shah, India, Build a similar to @NYPLEmoji bot for Commons > images > > - Dereckson, Ariel > > 6. > > > > Keerthana S, India, Automatic editing suggestions and feedbacks for > > articles in Wiki Ed Dashboard > > <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T160840> - Sage Ross, Jonathan > > Morgan 7. > > > > Sejal Khatri, India, Provide enhanced usability for Wikimedia Programs > > & Events Dashboard managed by Wiki Education foundation < > > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161929> - Sage Ross, Jonathan > Morgan > > 8. > > > > Siddhartha Sarkar, India, Single Image Batch Upload < > > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161670> - Basvb > > > > Outreachy Round 14 > > > > 1. > > > > Ela Opper, Tel Aviv, Israel, "Remind me of this article in X days" > > MediaWiki notification <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161823> - > > Matthew Flaschen and Moriel Schottlender > > 2. > > > > Medha Bansal, New Delhi, India, WikiEduDashboard: Allow Programs & > > Events Dashboard to make automatic edits on connected wikis < > > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161568>- Jonathan Morgan, Sage > Ross > > 3. > > > > Sonali Gupta, Rajasthan, India, Document process for creating new > > Zotero translator and getting it live in production < > > https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161191> - Marielle Volz > > > > > > We would like to encourage accepted candidates to introduce themselves on > > this thread, share with us where they are coming from and give a brief > > overview of the project they will be working on. > > > > We’re so proud of the contributions they have made so far to our > > community, and we look forward to having a wonderful time working with > > them over the summer!
