Include a 'Mentors select candidates' step in 'Life of a successful project' doc
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently we have Community Boding period ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Life_of_a_successful_project#Community_bonding_period ) right after Submitting your proposal ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Life_of_a_successful_project#Submitting_your_proposal ). We should have something like 'Participants are selected"/"Mentors select candidates" in between where we include:

  1. How the mentors should rank/rate their application
  2. Various elements from https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T117686 description

Thank you @Spage for pointing this one out.

Perhaps there should be a "Participants are selected"/"Mentors select candidates" step in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Life_of_a_successful_project saying "See the schedule for the program", before "Community bonding period".

Correct. If you have questions, just ask here, and I will try to reply based on our experience in the past rounds.

Between Submitting your proposal and Community Bonding on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Life_of_a_successful_project there is now:

Mentors select participants: More details at Outreach programs/Selection process. See T117686, "Select participants for Outreachy round 11 by 2015-11-11"

So what is left here seems to be:

@01tonythomas: Do you agree? Is this on your TODO list for this month? Do you need help? If yes, how to help?

Looks like the ranking in Outreachy system ( 0 to 5, with commitments, contribution dropdowns ) is different from the GSoC system ( just rate the proposal ). So, we will need something generic here, and Cut + Paste parts from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_programs/Selection_process should be right thing to do.

I will try get this done in few days. Thank you @Aklapper for reminding.

Looks good to me! Thank you!

Anything left to do here, or should this task get resolved?

Thank You and sad that I couldn't get this done before.

Anything left to do here, or should this task get resolved?

Nope I guess. We can add in more program specific rules once they arrive.
