| − | * Late notice, I know, but [[wikipedia:Silicon Forest|Silicon Forest]] has been the Wikipedia/WikiProject Oregon Collaboration of the Week for a while. (The word "week" is treated very loosely in this context!) I suggested this collaboration a while back, because I thought a good article on the Silicon Forest would be a nice complement to the [[Portland Tech]] portal. So, I encourage AboutUs'er's to get on over and get to work! -[[User:Peteforsyth|Pete]] 20:20, 29 April 2008 (PDT)

| − | * After our Stakeholder Meeting today, I stayed up on IRC and talked with the majority of [[WikiCoaches]] and a few community members about the way we envision the organization of the "WikiCoaching" work for our [https://www.aboutus.org/au_web_services/sponsor/page/?title=Editing%20DailyBuzz Paid Article service]. and how that dovetails into some of our other "paid" offerings like portal creation. As a result:
| |
| − | ** I created a [[WikiCoachingLog]] as a landing page for interaction and discussion between the coaches and community, thinking that could be useful.
| |
| − | ** I added a transcript of the IRC discussion [[WikiCoaching 15-April-2008]] if anyone is interested. It's a rather thick read, but might be illuminating to people to see how we trying to organize this work internally. -- {{TakTalk}} 01:12, 16 April 2008 (PDT)

| − | * Green technology enthusiast, [[User:Seanseamour fr|Jean Pierre de Lutz]], and I collaboratively worked on the AboutUs sponsored page [[GreenBoatBateauVert.com]], to create an informative article about the ongoing Greening of his boat Sean Seamour III - an experience he wishes to share with mariners from around the world who seek to make the sea a greener place. But Jean also wishes to bring the French community closer and wants them to actively participate in this effort. So, he went ahead and translated the entire article we had created into French: [[BateauVert]] ! Kudos to Jean for his initiative, great work on the articles, and bringing out the true potential of Coach-Client collaboration. [[User:Obed Suhail|Obed Suhail]]
