Talk:Outreachy/Round 9

Eligibility
To the org admins: before evaluating proposals in depth, I'm waiting for this list to be complete and cleaned up, am I right? As a potential mentor I've not yet received any instructions from the org admins, so I assume I'm not yet expected to do anything. In particular, --Nemo 08:24, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) the table needs to be integrated with applications which were submitted in other places;
 * 2) the eligibility of applicants needs to be confirmed (mentors have no means to verify the gender nor the Ascend Project membership of anyone).
 * , did you see T564? Maybe I was overoptimistic thinking that a notification there could substitute emails sent manually to all mentors. Feedback welcome, since coordinating through a Phabricator task is much simpler. We have asked all candidates to sort out their entries in the table, and it looks like your candidate is ready to be reviewed. Just like GSoC, we assume that participants are eligible, and the deeper checks are done only to the candidates that are selected. In other words, the time to evaluate your candidate is now.--Qgil-WMF (talk) 09:15, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah. No, I had not seen that task. In fact I have phabricator emails disabled (too noisy) so I don't follow anything there. Can you please update the wiki page, which I'm certainly going to follow?
 * I'm sorry but I'm not going to spend time evaluating a candidate whose eligibility is not confirmed, especially as it's rather easy to confirm OPW eligibility (compared to GSoC which asks university certificates). --Nemo 09:54, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
