Groups/fr



Les groupes MediaWiki organisent les activités de la communauté de source libre sur des sujets et des zones géographiques spécifiques. Il existe des Groupes d'utilisateurs Wikimedia qui permettent un niveau de coordination dans le contexte MediaWiki. As such, they extend the capacity of the Wikimedia Foundation in events, training, promotion and other technical activities benefiting Wikipedia, the Wikimedia movement and the MediaWiki software.

Les groupes MediaWiki sont ouverts aux membres de différentes spécialtés et de niveau d'expertise. Plus c'est riche et diversifié, meilleur c'est. 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.

Groupes thématiques
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].

Groupes locaux

 * 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.
