@13 I'm not sure what you mean. The deadline for submitting projects was March 14, so you cannot submit one now. The only April deadline is for applicants (i.e. potential interns) to contribute to projects by April 15.

No worries, thanks for the input! I've updated it now: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Community_Newsletter

Sorry, no. Please note that the submission deadline was March 14, which is Outreachy's deadline, and not something we can change.

It's noted on the latest edition: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Community_Newsletter/2025/April#Get_involved!

We are putting the newsletter on pause as we take some time to consider ways of making it more engaging for the community. Please share any thoughts on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Technical_Community_Newsletter

@13 Please join our Zulip channel to ask general questions: Outreachy 30

The next round is in December. Please see the details here under "important dates": https://www.outreachy.org/

Hi @Miquel.centelles2023 I'm sorry but Outreachy has closed their submission period, this is not our decision.

Unfortunately the submission period for projects is closed so it cannot be accepted into Outreachy. I won't close the task but will untag it from Round 30.

I guess it's technically still a valid task but I will untag it from Round 30.

Hi all, the actual work for this task is in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T388248 please continue there. Apologies for the confusion!

This proposal has not been submitted to the Outreachy site, so I'm moving it to the backlog.

Thanks @Zache I've approved him on the Outreachy site. Could you ask him to update the question "What is the contributor's mentorship style (how do they expect to interact with accepted interns)?" This is intended to ask about communication methods, frequency, etc. "Friendly" is great but more specifics would be helpful :)

Hi @Zache thank you for submitting your proposal to the Outreachy site! It seems to be missing your co-mentor Teromakotero, could you please add them? Thanks!

Hi @Zache thank you for recreating this task. Please note that it is currently hidden as per Outreachy's requirements; it will become publicly visible once the application period begins. You may continue to update it and any subtasks in the meanwhile. Thanks!

@josephine_l Great, you should now be approved :) Thank you for your patience!

@josephine_l Outreachy team said to use our page https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/wikimedia/ Use the “Select project to co-mentor” drop-down at the bottom of the page. Please try that and let me know if it works for you!

Thank you @josephine_l ! I've approved the proposal on the Outreachy website. I'm not sure why you can't sign up as we have had people sign up today, so that should still be open. I'm checking with the Outreachy organizer team and will hopefully have an answer for you soon.

Hi @Zache in case you missed the update on the parent task:
Unfortunately, the Wikimedia Foundation will not be participating in this year's Google Summer of Code program. We look forward to coming back in 2026. In the meanwhile, we will be participating in Outreachy round 30 this summer. You can propose a project here. Thank you for your patience and support.

Hi @AndrewTavis I'm happy to update the task for you and transfer it to Outreachy.

Hi @Miquel.centelles2023 Thank you for the updates! I've added you and this task to the Outreachy mentors group, so it will be hidden for now.

Hi @josephine_l and @Nicolas_Raoul I've added you both to the group and hidden this task for you. Apologies for the confusion!

Hi @Mvolz and @josephine_l I've added you both to the group.

Hi @Cain.micah As we are not participating in this year's Google Summer of Code event, we will decline this task for GSoC 2025 by removing the tag. In the meanwhile, we will be participating in Outreachy round 30 this summer. You can propose a project here. Thank you!
