Various small-ish thing that may be good for Google Code-in. Please feel free to add stuff to this page. Take a look at the three links below for inspiration about what kind of things are eligible for being GCI tasks.

General

Create GCI Student landing page
QA tasks in all projects
"As a new user, try to do X and let us know what you found confusing or too complicated".

MusicBrainz

Make a (screencast) video explaining how to do X
X = add release, add artist, add work, edit release, ...
jira:MBS-8623
Will probably need User:Bitmap or someone to help the student find out where the fix is supposed to be at. #Perl
Icon-related tickets (designing/displaying)
Some of these might involve two different tasks, one to design the icon and one to implement it (in some cases the latter might be a bit too tricky but the former still useful).
  • jira:MBS-8000 - Improve interface icons for better support of higher pixel density displays
  • jira:MBS-4644 - Indicate which releases have CAA art in listings
  • jira:MBS-3491 - Indicators for collection items
  • jira:MBS-8625 - Add data quality icons
  • jira:MBS-6869 - Show video flag when displaying work recordings
  • jira:MBS-6898 - Show video flag when displaying performances
  • jira:MBS-7070 - Missing icon (small version) for area, place and work
  • jira:MBS-2421 - Small icon near recording / work / release / artist / ... names to distinguish them (depends on 7070 and ideally on the following three)
  • jira:MBS-8626 - Add an icon for instruments
  • jira:MBS-8627 - Add an icon for events
  • jira:MBS-8628 - Add an icon for areas
