== Purpose ==
The purpose of the Wiki Working Group is to kick-start a revitalization of the wiki and to create a sustainable framework for empowering the entire Mozilla community to participate in and sustain this effort.
 
It is not the goal of the WWG to do all the work of revitalizing and re-vamping the wiki, but rather to create a structure and process that will facilitate and assist all Mozillians participating in this effort.
 
= Goals =
 
Build tools and establish processes that empower Mozillians across functional, product, and regional areas to contribute to collective stewardship of the wiki.
 
= Strategies =
 
Mirror the [[Contribute | Community Building Team's]] organizational structure and strategies so WWG is not a silo'd working group requiring organizational resources, but a lightweight federation of leaders from across Mozilla that coordinates work across the organization.


== Roles for each committee (see committees below) ==
[[File:Mozilla-wiki-logo-rev.png|frameless|right]]
* Committee Lead
* Liaison - connects and coordinates with corresponding CBT committee
* These can be the same person


== Taskforces ==
The purpose of the MozillaWiki team is to facilitate maintenance and improvement of MozillaWiki.
Create temporary Task Forces for low-hanging fruit, one-time, or urgent  projects that either can't be done outside of WWG, or are acting as blockers for Mozilla as a whole.
* If you think a Task Force should be created, bring it up during a Wiki Working group.
* Task Forces would ideally align with a committee essentially as autonomous sub-groups, or as collaborations between committees.

The MozillaWiki team (formerly Wiki Working Group) was formed in early 2014 with the goal of kick-starting a revitalization of the wiki and to create a sustainable framework for empowering the entire Mozilla community to participate in and sustain this effort. We have achieved the first part of this goal (revitalization) and are now working towards incremental feature improvements and creating a framework whereby the entire Mozilla Community can participate in maintaining and improving the wiki.

The purpose of the MozillaWiki team is to facilitate maintenance and improvement of MozillaWiki.

The MozillaWiki team (formerly Wiki Working Group) was formed in early 2014 with the goal of kick-starting a revitalization of the wiki and to create a sustainable framework for empowering the entire Mozilla community to participate in and sustain this effort. We have achieved the first part of this goal (revitalization) and are now working towards incremental feature improvements and creating a framework whereby the entire Mozilla Community can participate in maintaining and improving the wiki.

Goals

Our main goal is to build tools and establish processes that empower Mozillians across functional, product, and regional areas to contribute to collective stewardship of the wiki.

Release Processes

We release changes to MozillaWiki weekly on Thursdays. We track release planning on MozillaWiki:Releases subpages. Once the release is complete, post an announcement explaining the changes to MozillaWiki:News.

All feature and change requests are tracked in Bugzilla, under Websites > wiki.mozilla.org.

The process for a feature or change request to be implemented in production is as follows:

  1. File a bug.
  2. Members of MozillaTeam will triage the bug accordingly, modifying whiteboard, milestone and other fields accordingly.
  3. The request will be evaluated for suitability on MozillaWiki during a MozillaWiki community call (held twice monthly). Decisions during community calls are generally made by lazy consensus, with MozillaWiki module owners and/or peers making the final call if necessary.
  4. If MozillaWiki team determines the change should be implemented, it will be rolled out to our development instance first. While it implemented on dev, it will undergo testing and security review (if required).
  5. Once the change has been tested and passed security review (if required), it will be pushed out to stage and finally production.
