Help:Growth/Tools/How to claim a mentee/he

במיזמי ויקי בהם דף הבית זמין, חונכים יכולים לבקש חניכים.

Context
Since May 2019, the Growth team is working at Newcomer homepage project. This feature is only available on a short list of wikis.

חלק מפרויקט זה הוא לשייך לכל משתמש חדש חונך מנוסה. בחונך נבחר באופן אקראי מרשימה של משתמשים מנוסים אשר התנדבו להיות חונכים

Originally, it wasn't possible to change the mentor, which could've caused some troubles for wiki instructors, who might want to be a mentor for all their participants, and also for other groups of people. Since January 2020, it is possible for any listed mentor to change the assigned mentor for any newbie.

How-to


Mentors can claim a mentee by:


 * 1) going to Special:ClaimMentee
 * 2) entering the name of mentee you want to claim
 * 3) filling a reason (for instance, I teach this user at an off-wiki course)
 * 4) הגשת הטופס.

The action will be successful even in cases the user didn't have any mentor set previously. However, it does not enable the homepage for the users: they have to enable it.

All usages of this interface are logged at Special:Log, if you want to filter just Growth-related changes, you can use Special:Log/growthexperiments.

Changing the mentor will automatically create an Echo notification to the mentee, so they will be informed about this change. This notification encourages the mentee to contact their new mentor.

If a mentee wants to change their mentor, they have to ask a mentor to claim them.
