Please see the event's Phabricator work board to review the hackathon's projects and sessions. Also make sure to add your own.
Entre agora até o a hackathon, todos os participantes são convidados a participarem trazendo ideias sobre propostas para as seções. Mais próximo ao evento vamos delinear um processo aqui para propor sessões.
- Sessão que abrange qualquer uma das áreas técnicas da Wikimedia
- Skillshare tópicos em torno da árvore de tecnologia do Wikimedia
- Sprint para fazer progressos em uma área específica de um projeto (por exemplo, documentação, tradução, design, etc.)
- Projetos em destaque
If you have your own ideas for a large-scale sprint, track or other projects for the Wikimania hackathon and would like some help in advance coordinating please email Rachel Farrand <rfarrand
wikimedia.org> so we can work out the specifics.
Program and Schedule Information
New sessions are added to the hackathon throughout the event by participants, therefore we do not print the program on paper. You will need a laptop or mobile device connected to wifi or data in order to access the program. There will be a physical up-to-date program at the help desk as well.
How to schedule a session
All registered hackathon participants will be welcome to edit the program directly with your own sessions once we open the program for scheduling. This will happen about one week in advance of the hackathon.
- If your session is an hour or less, you will be able to schedule it yourself directly!
- Your session must link to an associated Phabricator task that is tagged to the #Wikimania-Hackathon-2018 project.
- Please try to keep your sessions to 55 minutes so your participants can get to another session. Also please have the room cleared in time for the participants from the session following yours to get settled and start on time.
- If you are scheduling a session for longer than an hour, need help editing the program, or need help with creating a task on Phabricator, please email rfarrand@wikimedia.org for help (we want to make sure that the limited breakout room space is available for everyone).
If you do not need a projector and expect a group of 3-10 people, please consider scheduling your sessions at a breakout table in the main hacking space. For now, you can add the session to the "Numbered Hackathon tables in Montreal and Mexico City" column on the program. Once you are in Cape Town you will be able to add a table number. There are no limit to the number of sessions that you can schedule in this column or length of these sessions that you schedule.
Schedule your own sessions or check out our program here:
Newcomer Program
Hackathon participants should have a technical background or be interested in contributing to the design, documentation or translation of a technical project. We will have a newcomer track that will help to introduce people to Wikimedia Tech and also a program to help connect those who don't know what to work on with a project or person who can help to get your oriented.
More details about newcomer support and mentoring can be found on our mentoring page.
Volunteering at the Hackathon
The Wikimania Hackathon is an event run for and by its participants. Everyone attending the hackathon can take as much personal responsibility to co-create the event and improve it as they like. Below you will find some pre-defined ways in which you can help make the event better for everyone. If none of these volunteer roles sound like a good fit for you, you can find small ways to help. A core principle of our hackathons is that if you see a problem, be part of the solution to fixing it. If someone has a question, help them answer it. If someone looks lost, help them find their way.
