Thread:Project talk:New contributors/Greeters/Ideas when thinking how to fix 'Find a greeter'/reply (3)

Hello Katie! That was fast. :)


 * 1) Not today but could be, yes. Good idea! In fact these days we are updating the Account creation user experience and I have in my ToDo list improving MediaWiki:Confirmemail_body. A link to How to contribute and to the Greeters page would make sense.
 * 2) I think the current list is good enough? In any case it is a reference: a greeter is meant to be your first contact in the community, and different newcomers will probably need different types of support. But any ideas are welcome.
 * 3) About contacting a greeter... Maybe we can simply start by having a discussion thread here "Find a greeter" where newcomer would just introduce themselves briefly and then the first greeter available would answer? We can do something more sophisticated if needed at all, but answering to an existing thread seems to be a simple task (it seemed to work for you?).  :)

I hope this helps. You might want to find some inspirational picture or illustration at http://commons.wikimedia.org or another free resource. See for instance Project:New contributors.

Thank you again for your quick and efficient reply!
