Groups/vi



Các nhóm MediaWiki tổ chức các hoạt động cộng đồng nguồn mở trong một phạm vi đề tài và khu vực địa lý cụ thể. Họ là những Nhóm người dùng Wikimedia đồng ý điều phối trong một mức độ nào đó các nội dung MediaWiki. Như vậy, họ giúp mở rộng năng lực của Wikimedia Foundation trong các sự kiện, quá trình đào tạo, quảng bá và các hoạt động kỹ thuật khác liên quan đến lợi ích của Wikipedia, phong trào Wikimedia và phần mềm MediaWiki.

MediaWiki Groups are open to members of different specialties and levels of expertise. The richer and more diverse the better. Non-technical users willing to contribute and learn are welcome too! All groups commit to the Friendly space policy.

MediaWiki groups can request support from the Wikimedia Foundation and chapters in various forms.

Thematic groups

 * Promotion

Thematic MediaWiki groups collaborate with their logical counterparts in the wider FLOSS community. They are global groups, collaborating online.
 * They are in touch with communities within the same focus.
 * They participate in events of the same topic.
 * They promote related training and outreach activities.
 * They help improving the related documentation in wikimedia.org.
 * They collaborate with the related development teams.
 * Eventually some of them meet at [//wikimania.wikimedia.org/ Wikimania].

Local groups

 * San Francisco

Local MediaWiki groups collaborate with Wikimedia chapters, See also Wikipedia meetups and other local communities related with Wikimedia, free software, free culture... Their focus consists in face to face activities:
 * Organization of local events: meetups, training, hackfests... These events adhere to the WMF Friendly space policy.
 * Participation in events held in their area.
 * Distribution of merchandising.
 * Promotion of local contributors to global MediaWiki and Wikimedia activities.

Also for non-English speaking groups: Local groups must be really local. Starting points like e.g. Recife, Munich or Saint Petersburg are better than Brazil, Germany or Russia. If you miss a channel for regional coordination then consider a regional mailing list.
 * Localization of documentation and software following translatewiki.net processes.

Creating a group
You don't need anyone to propose a group, just yourself. To get it approved you must have at least three contributors.
