WMDE Technical Wishes - Meta

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes Project is an approach to identify and prioritize technical requirements from diverse users in a collaborative way. The Technical Wishes team aims to build new and improved features in MediaWiki.

If you want to learn more about our approach, how it all started and the way we work, read our white paper "Building tools for diverse users. Lessons learned from the Technical Wishes project" or this wiki page.

If you are interested in technical details, please visit the project on Phabricator.
