You will help build upon the current list of feature wishlist: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Stakeholders%27_Group/Tasks/Feature_wishlist

For the month of October 2014, scan the archives of the MediaWiki-l mailing list at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l and the MediaWiki Support desk wiki page at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk. Search for mentions of feature requests or pain points that new features could address.

You will record the following information, listed below, on the wiki page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Stakeholders%27_Group/Tasks/Feature_wishlist/NAME_OF_STUDENT

• If the feature requests are similar to the requests on the current list https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Stakeholders%27_Group/Tasks/Feature_wishlist, indicate that the feature requests are similar, the number of times they are mentioned, and the links of the individual messages that the new features are mentioned in MediaWiki-l or MediaWiki Support desk.
• If the new feature requests are not already mentioned in the above list, record the new feature requests, pain points, count, and links of the individual messages that the new features are mentioned in MediaWiki-l or MediaWiki Support desk.
• For example, if two individuals say that they want a similar feature request, then the count for that feature request is two.  Provide a link for each individual message.
• Record your findings on the following wiki page for review. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Stakeholders%27_Group/Tasks/Feature_wishlist/NAME_OF_STUDENT
