List of Wikimedia mentors
Please be patient with mentors. Mentors are humans. They sometimes leave their screens to sleep, work, study. They might be in a different timezone than you. Mentor(s) have up to 36 hours to review the work that you have submitted. Please be patient. Do not ask for a review of your work after only a few hours. Google Code-In is about the quality of your contributions and it is about learning how FOSS development works. It is not about the number of tasks that you complete.
