Tech:Goals

Goal Periods at Miraheze are biannual periods of time when certain tasks (called Goals) are given extra focus and resources to be resolved.

Goals are split into two categories:
 * MediaWiki
 * Site Reliabilty Engineering

Tasks must meet one of the follow criteria in order to be considered as a goal:
 * a long-term project that can realistically be finished before the end of goal period,
 * a development project that will have a positive impact on Miraheze communities,
 * an objective for Site Reliabilty Engineering (infrastructure, introducing a new service, major work etc.).

MediaWiki tasks being considered for a goal must have someone who is willing and committed to work on the task or otherwise have such a massive positive impact or overwhelming support by the wider community that completion of the task in said goal period will bring improvements to the service.

Site Reliabilty Engineering tasks being considered for a goal are left at the discretion of operations.
