Update on this task >

Toolkit template added T225773#5339610
User scripts and gadgets toolkit PDF with detailed notes and source link added T225771#5339609
Created https://github.com/srish/small-wiki-toolkits as a venue for collecting and promoting toolkits. (Ideally, we move this repository under Wikimedia account once we have ~4-5 toolkits).

@Bmueller @Aklapper @Quiddity Your input needed on what more can we do for documentation and promotion of toolkits. Some ideas:

Encourage the use the toolkit template.
Get the source (Google Slides) and PDF (with trainer notes via Google Drive or Commons) of a toolkit linked from Github repository.
Encourage the trainer to upload the slides with notes on Wikimedia Commons. In the File Description, also add a link to the PDF source.
There be a “Small wiki toolkits” page on Meta in the near future.
Encourage folks planning on running a workshop at Wikimania to follow these guidelines around documenting toolkits.

Your thoughts?
