Asking for a forum in a specific language

To open a new forum for a given language, we need:

  • a confident-enough estimate of people that will use it
  • enough people to manage it (administration, moderation)
  • people that can work within and with the forums team that coordinates all forums

Any community can ask to have its own forum hosted there if they cannot afford it locally or they just do not want to manage server. Still they will have to organize daily management (moderation, help…).

Contact Forums team for that matter. ;-)

Teams coordination

  • A mailing-list / forum / channel for team members ought to be setup __at some point__ to help coordination, to exchange experiences, ideas, suggestions, also information about "suspects" like spammers or the like:
    • A mailing list
    • Or as suggested in the ML a forum for all admins/moderators in the main forum. We could discuss everything in that "cooperation" forum.
        • Meetings** also could help for coordination:
    • Regular ? That could be great but as we have forums in China, France, and Brasil that could be difficult to achieve.
    • Time ? Same difficulty
    • Place ? IRC channel ?
