Hi everyone, We have created a new Slack channel for volunteer communications. Slack is a messaging app where we can talk, share files, and work together. You can use it on a computer or mobile.
We want to use the best communication tools to support each other with more ease. Everything that you share in Slack is automatically indexed, creating a searchable archive of all our communications. We hope experienced Wikimedians in our community will find this space useful to support newcomers and answer their questions. We believe this can be a great opportunity for us to grow and reinforce our community.
