Adiutor

From mediawiki.org

Adiutor is a MediaWiki extension to moderate, triage, and maintain content tasks to improve productivity. Utilizing the advanced capabilities of the Codex design system, specifically developed for Wikimedia, along with the all-purpose features of Vue.js, this extension enables editors a user-friendly and convenient interface for conducting a wide range of tasks. It implements content triage methods, prioritizing and categorizing requests or content based on urgency and importance. Its user interface simplifies complex processes, making content maintenance more intuitive and productive for users of all skill levels.

Objectives[edit]

The objectives of the Adiutor stems from our desire to enhance the Wikipedia editing experience for users worldwide. We recognized the importance of creating a extension that could streamline various processes, making editing easier, faster for contributors across different Wikimedia communities. Below are the main reasons why we embarked on this project:

  • Empowering Wikipedia editors: As passionate Wikipedia editors ourselves, we understand the significance of efficient editing extensions. By developing Adiutor, we aimed to empower fellow editors with a user-friendly extension that simplifies their daily tasks, allowing them to focus on creating valuable content.
  • Addressing repetitive processes: Wikipedia editing often involves repetitive tasks, such as deletion requests and copyright checks. We saw an opportunity to streamline these processes and save editors valuable time by offering a centralized and efficient solution through Adiutor.
  • Collaboration and adaptation: Our vision extended beyond a single language or community. We wanted to collaborate with various Wikimedia communities to adapt Adiutor for multiple languages, making it accessible to a broader audience and strengthening inter-community ties.
  • Improving user experience: Ultimately, the goal of the Adiutor Project is to enhance the overall user experience on Wikipedia. We envisioned a extension that fosters a more efficient and enjoyable editing environment, inspiring editors to continue their invaluable contributions.
  • Contributing to Movement Strategy 2030: We align our project with the Movement Strategy 2030 recommendations, particularly in our focus on improving the user experience and promoting learning, sharing, and evaluation within the Wikimedia community.
