Invitation to try the Starter Kit Tool

Greetings!

As one of the active editors on this Wikipedia, you're invited by the Language Onboarding and Development initiative to learn about the Starter Kit, try it out, and join a virtual meeting where you can ask questions about the tool.
What the tool does
The Starter Kit helps small or new Wikipedia contributors complete essential tasks, like importing infoboxes, tracking your wiki's growth and health metrics, and connecting with members of the broader Wikimedia community for technical guidance. Some features require certain user rights, but three of the six tasks are open to any autoconfirmed editor, so most active editors can get started right away.

Here's what we would like you to do:

• Read the manual for more detail on the tool and the tasks you can perform: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit
• Access the Starter Kit tool: https://starterkit.toolforge.org/ and log in with your Wikimedia account to try it out.
• Sign up for one of three virtual meetings: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit/Office_hours#Office_hours, where you can:
  • Learn more about the tool.
  • Ask questions and share your thoughts.

Thank you so much for using the tool, and we look forward to your attending the virtual meeting.

Best regards,

Invitation to try the Starter Kit Tool

Greetings!

As a contributor who has actively been involved in testing the Starter Kit tool, the Language Onboarding and Development initiative would like to invite you to join a virtual meeting where you can ask questions and learn more about the tool.

Your experience using the Starter Kit is incredibly valuable not only for helping us improve the tool, but also for helping other Wikimedia communities learn from your experiences. We would love to hear how you've been using the Starter Kit, what you've accomplished with it, what has worked well, where you've encountered challenges, and what suggestions you have for making it more useful. Your insights will help shape future improvements and provide practical examples that other communities can learn from as they begin using the Starter Kit themselves.

Here's what we would like you to do:

• Sign up for one of the three virtual meetings: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit/Office_hours#Office_hours. Please attend one of the virtual meetings with your questions and thoughts.
• Come prepared to share your experience using the Starter Kit - what you've used it for, what you've accomplished, any challenges you've faced, and any ideas or suggestions you have.
• A user manual is now available with detailed guidance on the Starter Kit and the tasks you can perform: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit

Thank you so much for your collaboration in this work. We look forward to seeing you at one of the virtual meetings.

Best regards,
