Wikimedia Developer Summit 2017: Feedback Survey
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I will be creating a Wikimedia Developer Summit Feedback Survey.
I will be using last year's survey with a few changes - including: logistic details relevant to this year, giving people the option to opt in to a mailing list for events, and anything else that comes up throughout the event or that is suggested here and makes sense. Suggest away!

Add question about preferred session length to feedback survey

Qgil added a comment.Jan 11 2017, 12:33 PM

Is it possible to check the survey from last year in order to make suggestions?

• Rfarrand added a subscriber: • MelodyKramer.Jan 11 2017, 7:54 PM

Thanks Rachel! Pairing down this list a bit. I'd love to know:

  1. What can we do to improve the experience for remote participants?
  1. What was the best part of the conference for you?
  1. What would you improve for next year?
  1. Who should be at the next Dev Summit who wasn't at this one?
  1. Are there different ways we should do outreach before or during the conference next year?

(all from @MelodyKramer)

This was sent out on Wednesday evening after the event. I will send 1 follow up email with a deadline and then close the request for feedback.

The form is now closed, we had 60 responses.
Will update again with a link when I have summarized the information.

• Rfarrand closed this task as Resolved.Feb 15 2017, 2:15 AM

Phew - feedback sprint complete and my head is spinning. As usual, there is some great feedback.

Link the summary of feedback:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Developer_Summit_2017/Lessons_Learned

I am closing this task as there is nothing further I need to do with the feedback from the survey itself until the next event. I sent "Thank You" emails to people who ran sessions that got a lot of positive feedback.

The Lessons Learned link above is not quite complete. I need to incorporate both of the following into it before I remove the work in progress tag.
