(This message is to call for volunteers to help with a specific effort in
the At-Large Website Revamp Project. Please read the background below)

Dear Social Media WG,

As many of you may be aware, the At-Large Community website has gone through
a revamp process in the past year and its beta version
<https://newatlarge.icann.org>  was launched in ICANN 54 Dublin. As one of
the main goals of the revamp project is to improve the find-ability of
information, news articles and policy advice statements on the new beta site
can now be tagged based on their topics and origins. On its news landing
page <https://newatlarge.icann.org/news> , for example, you can check the
filter boxes on the left to narrow the search and quickly find the articles
to your interests. 

As part of the revamp efforts, all of the legacy news articles and
announcements from the old website have been migrated to the new beta site.
What we need help now is to tag the legacy content based on a pre-determined
taxonomy list, so that historical data like those can also be found easily.
To facilitate the process, a spreadsheet
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1A5p1bI68PSJQRrwLd9bW6e4LsTcqtHlDioR
jqgzea88/edit?usp=sharing>  that contains links to the articles and
selections of tags is developed. We need volunteers to glance through the
articles and select appropriate tags to classify those articles.

Take a look at this screencast as to what is expected for this work:

ariel.liang at icann.org. Your time and help is much appreciated!

Best Regards,
Ariel
