MediaWiki - General bug reports
editWhat: Bug Triage of General MediaWiki reports. We will focus on reports active in the past 6 months. These numbers include reports for problems that have not found a better place yet. We will be focusing on cleaning up, improving the quality of these reports, and retesting some of them.
When: Thursday, March 07, 2013 from 15:00 UTC until 21:00 UTC. This is an ongoing activity: you can arrive / leave at any time.
Where: #wikimedia-dev connect IRC channel. After joining on IRC, say Hello Bug Squad! and we will welcome you with instructions and a simple task. There will be a Bug Day Etherpad to document our progress.
Who: Anyone who is interested, including you!
See also How to triage.
This is a weekly QA activity organized by the Bug Squad team. Join us!
