Extension talk:Wikibase Repository/Mobilize Wikidata

Hello world!
I'm in the process of sharing my GSoC 2013 application with the Wikimedia community for discussion and feedback. If you've noticed something in the application that I could improve upon, have any queries or maybe just say 'hello', please drop in a word.

Alternatively, I can found on the IRC on freenode (#mediawiki, #wikimedia-dev, #wikimedia-mobile and #wikimedia-wikidata) and the mailing lists (Wikitech-I and Wikidata-I).

Cheers!

GSoC 2013 - Mobilize Wikidata - Feedback
Please add your feedback below :

Feedback
On "User Interface" I'd suggest mentioning that some tweaks might be needed - for instance the Uploads feature on MobileFrontend - I'm not 100% sure that will be useful on a mobile WikiData.

I'd hope that 3 weeks is more than enough time for "Community Bonding Period" - hopefully you'll be up and coding during week 1! Also rather than having 1-2 weeks "Testing on mobile devices with different screen sizes." I'd suggest a community feedback period. Testing across devices should be occurring as you go along, especially now Chrome browser allows you to override the display! If you force yourself to work on a tiny browser window for the duration of the project I'm confident you won't need this 2 week period!

It's not clear if you plan to but it would also be great if you could commit code as you go along (e.g. Github/Gerrit) rather than submitting to Gerrit at the end - this way your code will benefit more from review and be of better quality. It also will help you with documentation :)

It would be great if during your last 4-5 weeks you could collect feedback and suggest future enhancements. It would be great if your project outlives GSoC and creates an interested community (including yourself hopefully) that wants to continue working on it.

Otherwise looks great! Good luck!
