Project Updates

@atachibana reported that the re-routing of Codex page to Code Reference for Functions is 461 of 1069 (43.1%) completed. Refer to the guide if you would like to join the project.

@themiked is making progress on updating and reviewing the handbook. He is getting assistance from several team members.

@bph ran into the problem that reusable blocks don’t work in the migrationMigration Moving the code, database and media files for a website site from one server to another. Most typically done when changing hosting companies. of HelpHub articles to rosetta sites. The CPT post ids do not transfer. There is a meta ticket for the issue. @audrasjb reported that reusable blocks are a post type and are identified by their ID in post_content, so when they are imported, IDs do not match any longer, as was updated on the metaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. ticket.

@milana_cap let us know that the Facilitating Weekly Meetings page is published in the handbook. And that she continues translating HelpHub articles into Serbian.

Categorization Project

@estelaris reported that not many people replied to her request for adding stories about the user needs in building a site, making it difficult to create classifications for the HelpHub articles. The team requested another week to work on this and a Zoom call has been scheduled for Wednesday 15 April at 3:00 pm UTC for anyone who wants to join and help write stories.

Proposal for a Beginner’s Mentor Role

@sukafia proposed on his P2P2 P2 or O2 is the term people use to refer to the Make WordPress blog. It can be found at https://make.wordpress.org to add a new role as a beginner’s mentor because new members are having a hard time incorporating themselves on the team. @softservenet and @netpassprodsr volunteer to help to become mentors for new members together with @sukafia.

Open Floor

Four items were brought to the floor but we ran out of time to discuss them and will be added for next week’s agenda.
