[webwml/staging] Replace 'Effort Level' and 'Skill Level' with 'Language'
by arma＠torproject.org 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

commit fed3b29b20f6a77c289cc9d600fb64aae531d6b7 Author: Damian Johnson <atagar(a)torproject.org> Date: Fri Feb 26 09:50:48 2016 -0800 Replace 'Effort Level' and 'Skill Level' with 'Language' The effort/skill level indicators have always been hand wavy and not of much use to students. Replacing it with something they absolutely do care about: the project's language. This is just a quick guess for the existing projects. Gonna need to engage mentors so see if I'm right. --- getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml | 75 ++++++++++++++++++-------------------------- 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-) diff --git a/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml b/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml index 2800644..7a11a73 100644 --- a/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml +++ b/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml @@ -840,13 +840,12 @@ meetings around the world.</li> You may find some of these projects to be good ideas for <a href="<page about/gsoc>">Google Summer of Code</a> and the <a href="https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen">Outreach Program for - Women</a>.
