Help garden wiki

Zack is coordinating cleaning up the wiki to make it easy to see

  • What is the status of the large sets of structured data
  • How tech volunteers can help out
    • Which data sets need to be scraped
    • Who you can help implement PFIF

If you would like to help email zack: zack at civicspacelabs.org (don't claim this task because I need multiple people)

SalesForce.com Administrator

It would be a shame if people can and we had no data entry jobs right now, but needed to mobilize another large group of volunteers immediately. You must have some experience with salesforce.com and/or CRM systems. You will be the administrator of the Volunteer management CRM system for the PeopleFinder Project and you will need to assemble a team to help you. You will be the ONLY one with administrator access, but can create lesser accounts for your team. Review the project goals: http://socialsource.blogspot.com/2005/09/overall-peoplefinder-project-goals.html for a quick orientation. Very important you have salesforce.com experience. We don't have time for a learning curve. IM me dgeilhufe / yahoo if you would like to take on this role.

I'm willing to take on this role.--Gokubi 15:54, 6 Sep 2005 (EDT)

Yahoo Laison

Geilhufe 11:04, 6 Sep 2005 (EDT)

Work with the Yahoo team in Houston to identify collaboration opportunities. Must know the PFIF spec and be pretty technical. Review the project goals: http://socialsource.blogspot.com/2005/09/overall-peoplefinder-project-goals.html for a quick orientation. You will need to assemble teams from the community to implement any collaborations.

CLAIMEDCode bullet-proof HTML data entry form

Recode the html data entry form at: http://ethanzuckerman.com/entryform.html. Make it as impossible as possible for volunteers to enter bad data. Base it on the PFIF spec.
