== Notes from Lauren ==

Things to work on/think about (in no particular order):

1. Task template: should it have status and team members too, or
should that info be kept out of the task template and maybe just go
on the task page?

2. Sample task page: what should go on it? And then,

2a. We should make our "organizing organizing" follow those
specifications.

3. Task template again-- the "time" units seem pretty good, but what
about the "skills"? Should we try to brainstorm a larger list?

3a. Lauren's discussion about that w/ Xavi: [[User_talk:Lauren#some_templates]]

4. How do we make the instructions for adding a task as c lear and
easy as possible (to a wiki novice).

== Thoughts/Agenda for Working Meeting (6/5) ==

*Solidify task categories/template
*Solidify format for task page w/ things like status, contributors (maybe w/ another template like [[Template:Status box]])
*Make pages current for tasks
*OLPC Cambridge summer blog
*WikiEducator "Projects" page: http://wikieducator.org/Initiatives
*Wikigogy organization scheme: http://wikigogy.org/Main_page

== one-minute tasks ==

We began to break up 'participate' tasks by time...

See [[Talk:Participate]] on the wiki for details.

("Think about tasks that can be done in under a minute.
Imagine people doing tasks hundreds of times in a week,
getting many of them wrong, revising and reviewing these
tasks that others have done...")

Josh and Mel and I were brainstorming about this just tonight.
Reviewing content and creating groups dedicated to a specific type of review,
a la [[content stamping]], is one example. If you think of others, please describe
them in as much detail as you like here. [[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font color="fc9"><small>talk</small></font>]] 20:31, 27 August 2007 (EDT)

Some thoughts:

=== data stamping ===
* stamp data
* edit stamps
* fix categories (and taxonomies)
* add to special collections

=== data extraction and reformatting ===
* move data (pictures, stories, biographies, etc) into other collections, curricula, lessons, books, etc.
* add to a list of quotations or excerpts
* fix bibliography data: add translations, metadata, etc. (Get help from open library on this)
* reformat books into other forms


== Need links for cheerleaders / marketing folks ==
We're getting lots of interest from people who present themselves as salespersons, marketers, and executives. Where can we direct them? --[[User:Holt|Holt]] 18:56, 12 February 2008 (EST)

== Link to Summer of Content... ==

This links off to the summer of content page, which is still for 2007. There is no way for someone to follow the advice to "sign up".
