Growth team updates #2
Welcome to the second newsletter for the new Growth team!

The Growth Team's objective is to work on software changes that help retain new contributors in mid-size Wikimedia projects.

Our plan for the next quarter is ready

We will focus during the next 3 months on:


 * Understanding first day: to see what new editors do right after creating their accounts. We will be careful with user privacy, and we hope to share initial results in December.
 * Personalized first day: this idea will also help us learn a lot about new editors by adding some optional questions to the new editor’s registration process. We hope to share initial results in December.
 * Focus on help desk: we plan to invite or redirect people to the local help desks and assist new. We hope to have an initial experiment running in December.

You can check the details of that plan on our team page.

How did you get to that plan?

We have setup our plan based on the 8 ideas we were considering. You can discover our analysis on our team updates, and detailed analysis on each idea.

We are looking for volunteers

Do you want to participate to our experiments? We are looking for new communities to work with us (especially a new mid-size wiki), and people to become ambassadors to help us to communicate on the different communities. Discover how you can involve yourself or your community.
