Too ambitious?

[edit]

Hi Anjali, your plan is very interesting but it also looks like a bit too ambitious. Too many deliverables and very different. Have you done a feasibility check with your mentor? It would be good to define better the minimum deliverables that should be completed in order to consider your OPW internship completed successfully. I would even consider removing something, or marking it clearly as optional, if there is still time available. Otherwise, with your current timeline you risk to start many lines o work, without being able to finish properly any of them.--Qgil (talk) 15:13, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Details about the mobile app

[edit]

The most original aspect of your proposal is the WikiHunt mobile application, but your plan lacks technical details. I haven't checked in details the difference between this wiki page and your document in Google Drive, please merge everything here so we can be sure not to miss any important details. Still, you are not specifying whether this will be a pure mobile site or an app targeting a specific platform, and in any vcase in which platforms or browsers will this app be tested and supported.--Qgil (talk) 15:20, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Experience in mobile development

[edit]

Developing a mobile application is a big deal, or at least it is always more complex than expected. Do you have experience developing mobile applications? Since this would be a big percentage of your work, it would be good to see you completing microtasks related with mobile development. So far your contribution has focused in editing Wikidata, which is good for the other outreach tasks you are promoting, but it doesn't reflect the skills needed to develop a mobile application.--Qgil (talk) 15:20, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
