An Outreachy candidate for
http://mediawiki.org/wiki/Accuracy_review who
went ahead and started unpaid has been making good progress, and is about
to land the central guts of the project on github. It's a new way to
transition from creating to maintaining Wikipedia articles, with an
emphasis on detecting outdated statistics, fighting bias including paid
advocacy of all kinds, and proofreading WEP student work. It's been going
slow, mostly because the original trial run architecture was too dependent
on email.
However, before she gets there, could one or two people who are maybe
beginner or intermediate with Python but advanced with Mediawiki or PHP
please test her user authentication and login framework?

<https://github.com/priyankamandikal/wikireview/issues>
It's built for PythonAnywhere because it shouldn't run on Wikimedia
servers, because of the safe harbor DMCA provisions precluding editorial
control by web hosts. Please report any issues on github and note your
results on the Phabricator task to prevent duplication of effort.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Jim Salsman
