Looking for feedback

To become a note taker, we propose a rule that requires participation in the Training Team Guide Program. This will ensure proper guidance for note takers and help reduce errors when publishing meeting notes. Additionally, we suggest setting the following limits:

You may apply as a note taker only once a month.
You can serve as a note taker a maximum of five times.

This will ensure new contributors to participate and experienced contributors to focus on other form of contributions like translation, providing feedback and content creation. What are your thoughts on this proposal?

We will mark content translation issues created six months ago as “unplanned.” These issues will be closed, but if you’re still interested in working on them, you can reopen the issue and continue from where you left off.

Looking for volunteers

We’ve made significant progress on the thumbnail generator project, with most thumbnails successfully updated. However, a few content thumbnails still use outdated designs or don’t comply with our thumbnail generator guidelines. If you’re interested in volunteering for this task, simply leave a comment, and we’ll provide the necessary instructions to get started.

@zeelthakkar I am one of the organizers of WP AccessibilityAccessibility Accessibility (commonly shortened to a11y) refers to the design of products, devices, services, or environments for people with disabilities. The concept of accessible design ensures both “direct access” (i.e. unassisted) and “indirect access” meaning compatibility with a person’s assistive technology (for example, computer screen readers). (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessibility) Day 2025 event. We’re expanding to include more languages, such as French and Italian! Your skills can help make accessibility knowledge available to more people around the world. If anyone interested then Join us as a translator and make a real impact: https://wpaccessibility.day/translate/
