Hello everyone,
Wishathon is a new initiative that encourages collaboration across the
Wikimedia community to develop solutions for wishes collected through the
Community Wishlist Survey: <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey>. The inaugural
community edition will take place from *March 15th to 17th, 2024*. You can
learn more and sign up here: <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024>.
Since May 2022, the Community Tech team has organized five Wishathons <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Tech/Wishathon> internal to
Foundation staff to bring greater technical capacity to address open wishes
and promote collaboration on wishes within the product & technology teams.
Since the inception of the Wishathon, Foundation staff have helped
Community Tech complete work on 10 wishes that were otherwise stalling or
incomplete. This next edition of the Wishathon extends to Wikimedia
contributors as a next step in these efforts.
If you are interested in a project proposal as a user, developer, designer,
or product lead, you are welcome to join the event! If you wish to take
part in the Wishathon, you can register for the event on this wiki page: <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024>. Organizers will
send a message to your talk page with more details about the event in
January 2024 and post updates on this page.
