Updates from Capacity Exchange (CapX)!
[edit]
Hello Lefcentreright,
My name is Joris Darlington Quarshie, and I am an Outreach Facilitator for the Capacity Exchange (CapX) — a platform for finding and connecting with peers to exchange knowledge and skills on a global level.
CapX is a community-built tool, designed by and for the Wikimedia Movement, to make it easier for Wikimedians across the world to find and connect, collaborate, and exchange skills and knowledge with peers.
If you don't know it yet, I invite you to access capx.toolforge.org and create your user profile with your Wikimedia account. But, if you already have a profile, I invite you to check out the new features and possibilities we just launched. I am sure you will be delighted.
CapX's new version incorporates valuable community feedback gathered over the past months, including the Organization Profile - a feature for Wikimedia affiliates, initiatives, or community groups to create their own CapX presence (see here how to create yours).
Explore CapX's new features
[edit]→ Access: capx.toolforge.org
→ Watch the launch video:Meet the Capacity Exchange
→ Navigate CapX's User Guide and Frequently Asked Questions
→ Share your profile on Meta by adding the predefinition {{CapacityExchange}} to your userpage.
→ Visit our Meta Page for all documentation on the project
Please, let me know if you think your community would enjoy a presentation, workshop demonstration, or feedback session. I would be happy to support you on that. Just reach out, and we can schedule the best date and time together.
Best regards,
Joris Darlington Quarshie
