What has gone well?
[edit]- Good progress on PageAssessment extension
- Wishlist Survey going well -- starting to think about life after the survey ++
- The wishlist survey has largerly been without drama over the last few weeks
- Some translation help on the survey
- Happy with my progress on PageAssessment extension + lot of help from kaldari
- Work on Special:GadgetUsage seems about wrapped up
- Me and Frances tried our 1:1 in my morning/her evening time, worked really well for me
- Pretty good for me for now, we can keep experimenting
- Finishing up citation bot, finally (unless a new maintainer appears)
- Conversations with community on citation bot have generally been constructive
What could have gone better?
[edit]- Thanksgiving week, most of the team off for a chunk of the sprint
- Also Wikisource Conference
- Not a lot of closed tickets this sprint (as of Mon), esp 8 and 13 point tasks (hopefully ActiveUsers will make the cut) +1
- Turnitin/copyvios still going (stress/current state doesn't help me learn a new system)
- Today was a little slow on productivity side - was hung up on which way to go regarding removing deleted {{#assessment}} p.fn from pages
- Time zone difference slows getting feedback+1 ++++
- We, as an organization, still don't have a good process for getting translations
- No new citation bot maintainers :(
What else is on your mind?
[edit]- Org stress/conflict/survey/leadership
- Want to do more pair programming sessions with Frances/Kaldari +1 ++++
