Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Since you are experienced on enwiki and its policies, could you help me with this matter, please? Thanks.--MexTDT (talk) 20:18, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks and a question
Hi Raymie, thanks for reviewing my nomination of the article I wrote about Pubal. It's the first time I'm involved with this process, so I've gotta ask: will I be notified somehow (by a bot for example) if my DYK hook for it goes up on the main page? Cheers. --Samotny Wędrowiec (talk) 19:42, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Samotny Wędrowiec: Yes! (Scroll up on my talk page) Raymie (t • c) 19:46, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
- Ahh, I see. That's an impressive log! Do you know how long it might take Pubal to go up, assuming it will? --Samotny Wędrowiec (talk) 19:48, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
- I can't say, since my hooks have to be spaced out to avoid there being too many radio stations at DYK. Could be upward of a month, though. Raymie (t • c) 20:11, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
