 Page created as part of a project to improve hackathon documentation

I created this page as part of a project to improve the documentation for hackathon organizers.

If you're interested in details, find the official project description on Phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T168458

or check out my working page/ construction site that I used to document my work for this project: User:Sonkiki/Handbook Project

Sources I used to create the content of this page:

  • content from the previous /Hackathons page (as it was before June 30 2017), chapter "Suggestions/ Ideas from Hackathon Participants"
  • new content I created by myself, drawn from experiences of organizing previous hackathons, especially the Wikimedia Hackathon 2017 Vienna

I hope that the new structure created in this project not only proves to be helpful, but that it will be built upon, edited, improved and extended over time – like any good wiki page should be!

Any use of a page that isn't just to create it after the event and then forget about it is good use, as far as I'm concerned, and I had sort of already forgotten that page existed myself.

I am glad to hear that. Part of my job in this project was to dig up older pages with hackathon-organization related content, and I discovered yours with the help of the handy special pages prefix tool :) I will post the the list of all the pages I found during these wiki-excavations over the next few days, most likely on the (as of this moment not yet created) page Hackathons/Handbook :)
