CatQuest, reosarevok: ^

Tomorrow maybe :)
CatQuest
hmm......
ok?
but i'm also kidna busy
but sure feedback :D
Freso
Please let me know if any of the questions are unclear or if you think anything else should be asked about.
CatQuest
eh it needs permission :D
Freso
CatQuest: Can you show me screenshot? It should just require you to be logged in to Google.
CatQuest
i did login :)
Freso
Hence asking if you could send me screenshot.
Because it shouldn’t require permission, just log in.
CatQuest
ok, wait as ec
same if i jsut reclick your link
Freso
CatQuest: Try now?
CatQuest
yep, works
ok let's see
lol ok first beign an ass and a pedant (becasue you will love that ;)) first questino doesnt have a "no" (:D)
ok ok i get it it's so that people *will* read it but still
hmm..
ok should
"As a user, as a developer, documentation writer, or any other way. Which projects would you be comfortable explaining to a student in some way?" include "editor" maybe? sicne we're also doing non-dev tasks
maybe not big issue
for me: time per week is a hard way to figure. it's easier to say how many hours a day (with forbehold that it can spread aroudn a week)
uh it says "must match a pattern..
would be great if you could also or instead just write something
other thna those. it looks really good!
let me think... maybe a "what languages can you use" to help with multi language students etc
.. "are you prolifient in"

Freso: on the form, "what projects are you familiar with?", is this asking us which project we'd like to mentor for?
Freso
CatQuest: If they haven’t read the ones asked about in the first question, anything else is irrelevant. :)
aidanlw17: There should be a description clarifying this somewhere close to where the question is being asked?
CatQuest: I consider "editor" more or less equivalent with "user" in that context. :)
aidanlw17
Freso: yes there is, it says "Which projects would you be comfortable explaining to a student in some way?"
Freso
aidanlw17: Well, that’s what it’s asking then. :)
aidanlw17
Ok! :) So not necessarily the ones we will mentor?
Freso
Nope.
CatQuest: The pattern one is the timezone one?
And I’m not really interested in any mentoring happening in non-English. I know this excludes some students, but c’est la vie.

aidanlw17: I may change the question though.
weirditude has quit
aidanlw17: But I will send out a mail to all potential mentors once I’m satisfied with it.
aidanlw17
Cool, the reason I brought it up was because there wasn't a question explicitly asking which project we'd like to mentor for
Sorry if you're still sending it out then I shouldn't have submitted the form!
Freso
aidanlw17: I haven’t sent it out at all.
I just linked CatQuest (and here in general) to get feedback on questions and phrasing etc.
aidanlw17
Ok, silly me. In general I felt that the questions were well phrased.
Freso
No worries. And thanks. :)
aidanlw17
Welcome! :)
CatQuest
Freso: yea the timestamp one (altought yea maybe that is just me :3)
amCap1712
