Add calls to action #2

Closed terichadbourne closed 5 years ago

terichadbourne commented 5 years ago

When someone learns of your ProtoSchool chapter for the first time by visiting your repo's readme, what would you like them to do next? Providing a clear call to action is a best practice for making newcomers feel welcome and increasing community involvement.

How can your members learn about upcoming events? Will they be published at a Meetup website that you've linked to? Will they be announced in an issue in your repo (example), which means they should watch the repo to be notified?

Do you need help planning your next event, perhaps in the form of mentors or meeting space? Try opening an issue in your repo for event planning (example) and linking to it from your readme file with a friendly "Help us plan our next event!" message.

Do you need co-organizers? If so, tell them who they should reach out to (and how) to offer their help (example).

The processes you use to communicate with your members are up to you, but you should aim to make it clear from the readme how people can get involved and stay up-to-date.

I've open an issue for help wanted to prepare our first workshop. If you have no objections, I will close the issue.

My one suggestion would be that if you'd like help from others with the event organization, you may want to link to the issue from your readme to make it more visible. Up to you!

Good catch 😃 I've followed your advice.
