We have had [p2 call out](https://make.wordpress.org/community/2016/05/05/as-miss-jwo-pointed-out-in-todays-community/), a [chat on Slack](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/outreach/p1465304117000018) where we reviewed the p2 results and have grouped the following things as items for the Community team to concentrate on. 1. ## Community Documentation 2. This would include, but not limited to: 3. * Internationalising the handbook as required to give better support for non North American events and/ or organisers whose primary language is not English. * Translating the WordCamp Organising Handbook into different languages (and to find at least 2 contributors per translation to subscribe them to the make/ comm blog for updating changes) * Work on the Contributor Day handbook * Work on the Meet Up Handbook * Set up a single location for community team documentation such as flyers, wappus and any other material 4. ### Call for community help: 5. We need as many people as possible. People with **any** of the following will be great: 6. * Anyone who likes reading * Experience in organising a WordCamp * Experience in organising a local meet up as part of the chapter program or as a independent * People who enjoy writing/ checking spelling mistakes/ grammar etc. 7. Please have your own laptop for this. 8. ## Organiser Orientations 9. ### Note for WordCamp and Meet Up organisers: 10. If you are thinking or have already submitted a meet up or WordCamp application,** please let us know**. We will try and do as many orientations as possible during the Contributor Day. 11. ### Call for deputiesProgram Supporter Community Program Supporters (formerly Deputies) are a team of people worldwide who review WordCamp and Meetup applications, interview lead organizers, and keep things moving at WordCamp Central.

We’ll need a minimum of 2 deputies : 13. * Group orientations for people interested in moving their meet up group to the WordPress chapter account. * Group orientations for people interested in organizing a WordCamp, to give folks an idea of the process and what’s expected. 14. ## Community Support Desk 15. ### Note for WordCamp, Meet Up organisers and everyone in our Community: 16. Have a question about organising a WordCamp, meet up, about the Chapter program or the community team?  Got an issue you would like help on? Have a issue or pain point when you are organising community events for your local community? We’re here to listen and help! 17. This is where we invite every one from the community regardless of your background to find the help you need. 18. ### Call for deputies help 19. We did this last year and it was really beneficial. It also enabled local community organisers to share their pain points of working with the guidelines which you rarely hear them talk about otherwise. 20. It would be good to have a minimum of two deputies on this roll at any given time. 21. ## Community DeputyProgram Supporter Community Program Supporters (formerly Deputies) are a team of people worldwide who review WordCamp and Meetup applications, interview lead organizers, and keep things moving at WordCamp Central.
