T93584: Goal: Most welcoming and productive Wikimedia Hackathon had a goal defined of at least 2 hackathon projects showcased that are worth supporting further.
The candidates are listed in T96378: Wikimedia Hackathon 2015 showcase. We need to make a selection, and for that we need to define the criteria to select them.
Principles
Features of a certain size
We are including projects that pursue new features and that imply a significant amount of work. Bugfixes and small tasks have been excluded.
Powered by volunteering
The main purpose of this selection is to highlight projects where volunteers are either drivers or essential co-pilots. Projects driven entirely by WMF teams are excluded, since these teams have the means to push these projects through their team goals. Projects driven by WMF developers in their volunteer capacity (i.e. in areas different then their usual work) are included.
Community consensus
Projects without community consensus have been excluded, since those discussions would need to happen first.
Selection
To be continued in Wikimania
The own promoters of these projects have committed to work further in #Wikimania-Hackathon-2015
- T100088: Surfacing image content gap on Wikipedia
- T91201: [GOAL] Accessibility settings/preferences on desktop and mobile
Related to WMF goals
Not planned for Wikimania, but a WMF team or individual is committing to support this project in a quarterly goal.
Noticeable projects apparently stuck
Interesting projects that received love and work in Lyon, but seem to be stuck since then.
