Mailing List Archive: Fwd: Call for proposals - Looking for paid mediawiki tech contractors

Hi all!

At Vikidia, the Children Encyclopedia, we are looking for paid contractors
(and volunteers) to help us improve our Mediawiki farm in different ways.

For those who don't know us yet, at Vikidia, we help children get
encyclopedic articles they can understand. We're numerous contributors all
over the world, like Wikipedia, writing the articles under free licence.
Vikidia association is based in France, and is available in different
languages like Spanish, Italian...

Now, Vikidia is very big (more than 8 million pageviews per month), the
tech architecture is now more and more complex and hard to maintain by
simple volunteers. We are looking for experts for specific tasks. Can you
help?

Here is a call for proposals:
https://fr.vikidia.org/wiki/Vikidia:Tech/Call_for_proposals

Can you please forward this email to anyone/list who may help us?

Thanks!
Plyd, for Vikidia

Hi, Plyd. Are you aware of

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Professional_development_and_consulting

That is a good place to find experts, both companies and
individual consultants. (Our company is on that list, but so are
many others.)

Best regards,
