Hello again. I have a few updates to share with you and I’d like to encourage your help in getting some attention on issues impacting MediaWiki developers.

First, have you heard of the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_Wishlist Developer Wishlist]? It’s an opportunity for MediaWiki developers to suggest ideas on what would most benefit developers in their experiences within the movement. Is it code review? Documentation? Process? Tools? Or something else all together?

So, we need your ideas! You can visit the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_Wishlist Developer Wishlist page on MediaWiki.org] for more information and to submit your ideas.

If you already know of existing Phabricator tasks that would be good candidates for the wishlist, please add the #devwish17 tag to those tasks. The deadline for submissions is '''31 January'''! Voting will open in early February.

You can [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/2436/ view existing submissions on Phabricator].

Second, please remember that [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/EMWCon_Spring_2017 EMWCon is coming up in a few months]! Registration is open, we are seeking new presentation submissions, and [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/EMWCon_Spring_2017#Grants_for_Wikimedians travel & participation support] is available.

Third, a reminder that [https://wikimania2017.wikimedia.org/wiki/Scholarships Wikimania scholarships] are open till 20 February, a little less than a month away! [https://wikimania2017.wikimedia.org Wikimania] is the largest annual event of Wikimania contributors. This year Wikimania is being held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in August.

Wikimania is a great opportunity to meet, share, and learn from the diverse members of the Wikimedia movement. I hope to see you there!
