(Apologies for cross-posting and for the message being in English only!) Dear WLM organizers and participants,
We have some good news for you! As potential interested stakeholders, we would like to share with you that the Connection Product team <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Campaigns/Foundation_Product_Team> at the Wikimedia Foundation is enabling the CampaignEvents extension <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents> on Wikimedia Commons by the week of September 15th. This extension is designed to simplify the management of community events, projects, and campaigns, such as yours! In addition to facilitating the discovery and participation of all contributors in these events. Once it's enabled on Wikimedia Commons, organizers will have access to features that will help communicate with participants, as well as plan, organize, and promote events/campaigns/projects on Wikimedia Commons, without having to rely on external platforms. The features of the extension are: - Event Registration: <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event_Center/Registration> A tool that helps organizers and participants manage event registration directly on the wiki. - Collaboration List <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Campaigns/Foundation_Product_Team/Event_list>: A global list of events and a local list of WikiProjects, accessible at Special:AllEvents <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:AllEvents>. - Invitation List: <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Campaigns/Foundation_Product_Team/Invitation_list> A tool to help organizers find editors who might want to join, based on their past contributions. For more information, please check the message shared <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Upcoming_Deployment_of_the_CampaignEvents_Extension> on Wikimedia Commons’ Village Pump. If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to share them on the extension discussion page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:CampaignEvents>. We would love to hear from you before the rollout! As organizers, if you want to know more about the extension or help us engage/use the features on Wikimedia Commons, and assist us in creating an adoption strategy for the extension, please let us know either here, on the extension discussion page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:CampaignEvents>, or by contacting me directly via <[email protected]>. Thanks so much for your attention! Best, Giovanna Giovanna Fontenelle (she/her) Program Officer, Culture and Heritage Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/>
