User:Slevinski/SignWriting/Ambassadors
If you've ever reported a bug, commented on a new feature or explained how the software works to another SignWriting user, you're already a SignWriting ambassador.
SignWriting ambassadors are technically-minded volunteers who help other SignWriting users with technical issues, and act as a bridge between developers and the various sign language projects.
One goal of the ambassadors network is to make sure that users are notified of technical discussions and possible changes that impact them. The other goal is for users to get involved as peers in the development process, so that they can inform and guide software development, not just provide feedback after it's done.
above template based on Meta:Tech/Ambassadors.
 |
Help other users | Watch technical discussions on your home wiki, and help your fellow Wikimedians by answering their questions about the software, templates, etc.
If you're able, help them diagnose their issues, and solve the technical problems they encounter. |
 |
Relay tech news | Read the SignWriting News, and inform the rest of your community about what is going to impact them.
Invite other people to read, and if you can, help write the SignWriting News. |
 |
Report bugs | If it's too difficult or impossible to solve the problem on your wiki, report issues and feature requests on the main SignWriting Tech page..
Follow the discussion and, if necessary, help the developers. When the problem is solved, inform your fellow Wikimedians on your home wiki. |
 |
Get more involved | If you want to go beyond ambassador-type activities, there are many ways in which you can help.
You can help guide the work of our developers, or start designing, coding, or testing software yourself. |
