About me |
My workI'm Wikimedia's bug wrangler since October 2012. This means I manage issue reports and enhancements requests in the Wikimedia bugtracker (Bugzilla). I "triage" and clean up reports to get them into a valuable state whenever needed, maintain the bugtracker by adding / setting new products, milestones, versions etc, do some Bugsquad community building, and describe and improve workflows and common practices in bug report management. All information on Wikimedia bug management can be found here. (Until 09 January 2013 I just had one user account, Malyacko, for my personal and staff edits. I have split this now.)Disclaimer: Although I work for the Wikimedia Foundation, contributions under this account do not necessarily represent the actions or views of the Foundation unless expressly stated otherwise. For example, edits to articles or uploads of other media are done in my individual, personal capacity unless otherwise stated.

wikimedia.orgWork status updates [edit]
[edit status] • [add new]
An IRC office hour about Bugzilla and bug management took place (log). Thanks to Ori, a Wikimedia Labs instance to test Bugzilla software changes is now available. Apart from that, the last week mostly consisted of gruntwork: With regard to Bugzilla taxonomy, a number of Bugzilla components (for MW extensions) and a Bugzilla product "Tool Labs tools" were created. Andre tried to debug connectivity issues, reviewed some older ephemeral files on the Bugzilla server that are not in the Bugzilla repository, prioritized a number of previously unprioritized tickets, and had some initial discussions with Wikimedia's Release Manager about improving the bug life cycle workflow (making it clearer when a fix has been deployed).
