Code Review/Office Hours

Code review office hours are regularly scheduled twice weekly events which take place on IRC. The purpose is primarily to have an agreed time for contributors to seek feedback or request to have their patches merged. The code review hours will usually be attended by core MediaWiki developers who have the ability to approve and merge patches in gerrit.

If you have a patch that needs code review or want to review code of other people, please consider joining the IRC channel and subscribing to the events in phabricator you find below. Contributors who want a patch reviewed are asked to add a link to their patch in the comments of the appropriate event though this is not mandatory. Follow one of the links below, depending on the day of week you want to join office hours, and go to the current ocurrence of the task. Please do not post in the linked task directly as this is an old occurrence of the event.
