CampaignEvents/Deployment status

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

This page provides the deployment status of the Campaign Event extension across various Wikimedia wikis. The Campaign Event extension provides features for event organizers and participants, such as the Event Registration tool, which allows organizers to create and manage event registrations directly on the wiki. This facilitates better organization, tracking, and analysis of events hosted within the Wikimedia community.

Important Things to Know Before Enabling CampaignEvents on Your Wiki

[edit]

Before you ask to Enable the CampaignEvents extension on your wiki, consider the following points:

  1. Event Organizer Right: Some features/tools in the CampaignEvents extension such as the Event registration tool and the new Invitation list, require a special user right called the Event organizer right. This right grants users access to these tools/features.
  2. Your wiki admins will be responsible for managing who gets the Event organizer right. your community/admins will need to decide the criteria or rules for who can get the Event organizer right. For example, they might require that a User must have No active blocks on the wiki, have a minimum number of edit counts on that wiki, etc.
  3. Granting and Removing Rights: Admins will give the Event organizer right to users who meet these criteria, and they can also remove the right if needed.
  4. Using the Meta Criteria as a Sample: If your community is unsure how to set these criteria, you can look at the Meta Event Organizers page as an example. This shows the criteria used on Meta Wiki, and your community can use it as a sample to create their own rules.
