Hey all,
We have a lot of signups from people that want to be helpful
during the Hackathon but aren't very technical.
Luckily, Wikipedia needs them! (-:
I'm trying to collate ways people can be productive, grouped by
what skills they already have, on this page:
* http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hackathon/Draft
As I feel happy with the page, I'll merge into the main Hackathon
page.
Structure-wise, what we'll do is emphasize that page during the
opening ceremonies, and also have a table for beginners to emphasize
that they are very welcome to ask for help from people.
I wanted to get feedback from people here, too, about the contents
of that list. So far, for non-techies, I have the following tasks
I can think of:
* Improve a page within a WikiProject
* Respond to a Talk Page comment
* Fix up a page, per a category
Are there some Commons-related, or OSM-related, or GLAM-related tasks
that I can add to that?
I'll be adding more technical tasks to that shortly, too.
