- Hi! I hope you're still interested. In the meanwhile we've featured more projects, for instance Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#Wiki_page_translation_revisited; I hope to hear a proposal from you soon. Another student has created Extension:Translate/Mass migration tools, you can nevertheless make another proposal for the same project if you wish, e.g. under the title Extension:Translate/Mass migration tools (2).
- As a suggestion, I think that adding some information, and at least one photo (that you can upload on Commons), will help getting more people involved and more comments. :) Being a "foreigner", i.e. someone the community doesn't know anything about, is one small thing that can make progress slower. --Nemo 13:00, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
- Reminder, the application deadline is the 21st. --Nemo 08:33, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
GSoC application
editHi! You showed your interest in presenting a proposal for GSoC 2014 at Google_Summer_of_Code_2014#Candidates. Are you working on it? The deadline is this Friday, March 21. There is not much time left, but we still encourage you to apply. Submit your proposal to Google Melange before the deadline, we allow our students to keep improving it after that date (within reason, as long as you are in good sync with your mentors). Our advice? Be bold and take the chance.--Qgil (talk) 18:50, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
