= | = Purpose = | ||
The purpose of the Wiki Working Group is to kick-start a revitalization of the wiki and to create a sustainable framework for empowering the entire Mozilla community to participate in and sustain this effort. | |||
It is not the goal of the WWG to do all the work of revitalizing and re-vamping the wiki, but rather to create a structure and process that will facilitate and assist all Mozillians participating in this effort. | |||
= | = Goals = | ||
Build tools and establish processes that empower Mozillians across functional, product, and regional areas to contribute to collective stewardship of the wiki. | |||
= Strategies = | |||
Mirror the [[Contribute | Community Building Team's]] organizational structure and strategies so WWG is not a silo'd working group requiring organizational resources, but a lightweight federation of leaders from across Mozilla that coordinates work across the organization. | |||
== Roles for each committee (see committees below) == | |||
* Committee Lead | |||
* Liaison - connects and coordinates with corresponding CBT committee | |||
* These can be the same person | |||
== Taskforces == | |||
Create temporary Task Forces for low-hanging fruit, one-time, or urgent projects that either can't be done outside of WWG, or are acting as blockers for Mozilla as a whole. | |||
* If you think a Task Force should be created, bring it up during a Wiki Working group. | |||
* Task Forces would ideally align with a committee essentially as autonomous sub-groups, or as collaborations between committees. | |||
