Hello all,

We (me and Sammy) have proposed a project to improve the searchability of the PageTriage extension's Special:NewPagesFeed, which is a VueJS interface that allows patrollers on English Wikipedia to track new pages created by users.

If your into Vue/JS and PHP, feel free to give us a buzz :)

Regards,

Sohom Datta

Hi,

For anyone interested in working with PHP and JavaScript, we have a project to improve the InlineComments MediaWiki extension:

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T356436

InlineComments is a relatively new extension that allows for Google Docs-style user annotations within pages. There are some interesting ways it can be improved, most notably by allowing user tagging with "@".
