I've been receiving an increased amount of questions around welcoming & guiding of new Ouishare members in the last weeks, so it seems like it is needed to give a short update and reminder on what resources we have at our disposal, to do this -- now that we have distributed the activitiy of welcoming & guiding (which means that there is no single person or group in charge doing this).

Earlier this year, Jocelyn did some work to create some basic introductory materials for welcoming & guiding new OuiShare members that you can use. I just took the time to do a quick review of them and make some tweeks to our wiki, so that these should now be ready to use:

Community Resources on the Wiki

I've just reviewed our Wiki landing page, as well as our Members & Connectors Toolkit where you can find many practical resources.

To specifically know more about Welcoming & Guiding, check the Community Connectors Hub for useful links such as:

• A Connectors welcoming document for all of you who recently became Connectors, that @jocelynibarra prepared a few months ago, which we should remember to send to new Connectors as of now.

• a guiding README to help on first steps.

ping @claudinerevol1 @davidwe @elenagiroli @anamanli @alexmtl @asmaaguedira @eha this should be useful for you in the future :)

Please comment below: are these resources useful? Is the wiki page understandable? These pages are your references for information on daily basis that you need to work with, so we all need to feel like they serve this purpose well (and if they don't, change them!).

And as you all know: the wiki is made to be actively used by all of you, so if there is anything missing, wrong, or you have ideas for new things that need to be added, please just go ahead and edit!

Lastly: if you see a big amount of work in this area that you feel is critical and you would like to take on, don't hesitate to propose a bucket on cobudget for this activity.
