Wiki Project Med Community tech team
Wiki Project Med (WPM) began a community tech team in 2026 to work on community wishes. Plan is to concentrate on wishes that are politically and technically easier. We also plan to look back at prior wish lists and consider those with significant support.
Initial thoughts on complexity at Wiki Project Med/Wishlist.
Community advisors
[edit]This is a group of volunteers who meet and provide direction regarding which wishes to pursue, following technical feedback.
