- Building Organizing Tools for Campaigns and Editing Events
Theme:
- Global & Local, Tech & Tools
Type of session:

Abstract:
Do you organize or participate in Wikimedia campaigns, such as WikiGap, Wiki Loves Monuments, or #1Lib1Ref? If yes, please join our talk! The Campaigns team is a new team at the Wikimedia Foundation, focused on building and improving tools for campaign organizers and participants. As our first project, we’ll be building an on-wiki event registration system. We invite you to learn about our first project, as well as other tools we may build for campaign organizers.
We will spend the first half sharing our thoughts on the direction of the team, but then focus on collecting feedback from the community. We are requesting 45 minutes: about 20 minutes of presentation and 25 minutes of feedback and conversation.

- We could build it into unconference if we needed to.
