Qu'est-ce que l'extension CampaignEvents et quelles fonctionnalités offre-t-elle ?
L'extension CampaignEvents propose directement sur les wikis un ensemble d'outils destinés à aider les communautés à créer, gérer et promouvoir des activités. Il offre des fonctionnalités telles que l'outil d'enregistrement d'événements, qui permet aux participants de s'inscrire aux événements directement sur la page wiki. Statistics on event contributions can also be displayed directly on the wiki page. Organizers can communicate via email with registered participants before, during, and after events. It also includes the Invitation list, which helps organizers find or identify potential participants for upcoming events. Additionally, the extension includes a Special:AllEvents page, also called the Collaboration list, which displays a global list of all events that use Event Registration and a list of all WikiProjects on the local wiki.
Qui peut utiliser l'extension CampaignEvents ?
L'extension CampaignEvents peut être utilisée par toute personne disposant du droit Organisateur d'événements sur un wiki où l'extension est activée. Ce droit permet aux utilisateurs d'accéder aux outils de l'extension, tels que la création d'événements et l'identification de participants potentiels. Les membres de la communauté souhaitant utiliser l'extension peuvent demander le droit Organisateur d'événements conformément aux directives ou aux règles établies par le wiki sur lequel ils ont l'intention de travailler. Tous les utilisateurs, qu'ils disposent ou non du droit Organisateur d'événements, peuvent s'inscrire à des événements en tant que participants. Ils peuvent également accéder à la page Special:AllEvents (également appelée Liste de collaboration) sur chaque wiki où l'extension est activée. Cette page fournit une liste de tous les événements se déroulant sur le wiki qui utilisent l'outil d'inscription aux événements ou se trouvent dans l'espace de noms Event, ce qui permet à chacun de consulter et d'explorer facilement les événements en cours et à venir.
Quels outils sont inclus dans l'extension CampaignEvents ?
L'extension CampaignEvents comprend actuellement trois outils/fonctionnalités destinés à faciliter la gestion des événements sur les wikis :
- Event Registration Tool – Allows campaign organizers to manage event registrations and collect event contribution statistics directly on the wiki. Participants can register directly on the event page, simplifying event registration.
- Invitation List – Helps organizers find or identify potential participants for their upcoming events.
- Collaboration List (Special:AllEvents page) – A global list of all events that use Event Registration and a list of all WikiProjects on the local wiki, making it easier for people to find opportunities to collaborate and connect with other contributors on the wikis
Why should my community consider enabling the CampaignEvents extension on our home wiki?
The CampaignEvents extension makes it easier to organize, promote, and manage events, WikiProjects, or other on-wiki collaborations directly on the wiki. By enabling this extension on your home wiki, you can access the following benefits:
- Organizers in your community can find and identify potential participants for future events or Wikiprojects. These potential participants could be users who have contributed to similar projects on your home wiki and may be interested in your upcoming event or project.
- With the extension enabled on your home wiki, organizers can list events on the global Special:AllEvents page, making them visible to users across all wikis where the extension is active – not just on your home wiki alone.
- Potential event participants can register for events directly on the wiki page, rather than using any external tools or platforms.
- Event participants can see statistics about their contributions during the event directly on the wikis.
- Organizers in your community can easily communicate via email before, during, and after the event with the participants who registered for their events.
These features help communities organize and run events, WikiProjects, or other on-wiki collaborations more smoothly and reach a wider audience, without needing extra tools or forms.
Which wikis currently have the CampaignEvents extension enabled?
The CampaignEvents extension is deployed to all Wikimedia wikis, as well as some affiliate wikis.
Quelles sont les étapes à suivre pour activer l'extension sur mon wiki personnel ?
To enable the CampaignEvents extension on your home wiki, your community will need to follow these steps:
- Community Discussion – Start a discussion on your home wiki (usually on the Village Pump or a similar community page) to gather community support and reach a consensus for enabling the extension.
- Define Event Organizer Rights – Work with your home wiki admins to create guidelines or criteria for granting the Event Organizer right, which will allow certain users access to using some of the features associated with the extension, such as the Event registration tool and Invitation Lists.
- Request Activation – Once your community has agreed to enable the extension and established guidelines for Event Organizer rights, submit a request for the extension to be enabled on your wiki.
If your community would like a demonstration of the tools and features, you can request a community call with our team. You can do this by reaching out via our team talk page or by filing a Phabricator ticket in our board.
Will the CampaignEvents extension make our events visible only on our home wiki, or will they be visible on other wikis too?
The CampaignEvents extension helps increase visibility for events in two ways:
- First, it makes events more discoverable on your home wiki by displaying them on the Special:AllEvents page (Collaboration List), where users can easily find ongoing and upcoming events.
- Secondly, if your event is listed on the Collaboration List, it can also be visible to users across all wikis where the CampaignEvents extension is enabled, allowing a broader Wikimedia audience to see and potentially join your event.
What is the Event Organizer right and why is it needed for using the extension?
The Event Organizer right is a user right that grants extra abilities specifically useful for event or WikiProject organizers on wikis where the CampaignEvents extension is enabled. It is required to access the organizer side of Event Registration on large wikis. It is required in order to access the Invitation Lists feature on all wikis.
For small and medium wikis, the organizer side of Event Registration is available to all autoconfirmed users.
In summary, the Event Organizer right provides access to the following abilities:
- Enabling registration on an event page on large wikis.
- Sending mass emails to registered event participants using the event registration feature on large wikis.
- Collecting participant demographic data through the event registration feature on large wikis.
- Generating invitation lists based on user contribution history via the Invitation List feature on all wikis.
As you can probably guess, the risk of abuse seems low with this right. However, it’s still important to give this right to people the community trusts – people who meet the community's defined criteria.
Who manages the Event organizer right?
The Event Organizer right is managed by the administrators of each wiki where the CampaignEvents extension is enabled. Each community is responsible for setting criteria or guidelines on who can receive this right on their wiki. Administrators of that wiki are responsible for managing the rights on their wiki.
If I have the event organizer right on one wiki (eg. Meta), does that mean I automatically get it on all wikis where the extension is enabled?
No, the Event Organizer right does not automatically transfer to other wikis. If you have the Event Organizer right on one wiki, it applies only to that specific wiki. Each wiki community manages its own Event Organizer rights, so you would need to request this right separately on each wiki where you want to use the CampaignEvents extension.
Can the extension be used for any type of events or just a specific type?
The CampaignEvents extension can be used for any type of event or organized activity on the wiki. This includes edit-a-thons, workshops, webinars, community meetups, and other collaborative activities. The tools within the extension are flexible and can support various types of activities, allowing organizers to manage registrations, communicate with participants, and promote their events directly on the wiki.
How can I request feature improvements to the CampaignEvents extension?
You can share feedback or ideas on this talk page. You can also create a task in our Phabricator board.
