There are a couple projects related to Wiki Education Dashboard / Programs & Events Dashboard that I'm hoping to mentor for. It's a web application built with Ruby on Rails and React.js, and it tracks participation in things like classroom editing projects and editathons.
For Outreachy, the project is to build a Ruby gem for fetching and parsing Wikidata diffs, so that it's easy to determine what changed — how many statements or references were added, etc — in a given edit. Once the Outreachy projects on Phabricator go public, you can find it here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328389 For GSoC, the project I've listed is to improve the user experience for setting up a new event on Programs & Events Dashboard when the event organizer only wants to track contributions to a specific set of articles. You can find the more detailed description here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328698 (We're also open to student-proposed projects for the Dashboard, and I've mentored for several such projects in the past.) If you're interested in exploring the project and/or chatting about it, you can request an invite to our Slack channel by sending me an email ( s...@wikiedu.org).
