What is the Capacity Exchange?
技能開発はウィキメディア運動の中核的な戦略の一つです（ウィキメディア2030運動戦略の「技能とリーダー開発に投資」勧告）。人々が資産やスキル、ニーズを入力できるプラットフォームがあれば、リアルタイムで能力をマッピングできます。個人参加者や非公式のグループ、提携団体が集まるチャネルを統一して技能、サービス、リソースを交換できるようにします。
The CapX platform is the place where all the user groups, initiatives, programs, and users converge and, at the same time, from where they all part. It is the place to find the best match for your needs, someone who can have your back and help you figure out how to handle your issues—be they technical, social, or even organizational needs.
On CapX you find the help to build your capacities in the way that better suits all the parties involved. You can discuss the ways of connecting through our message feature or ask for the help of a peer support program – it's up to you.
外部のプラットフォームは使いたくない！
ウィキメディアンの皆さんは、日毎の作業に外部のプラットフォームを利用しています（Google ワークスペース、LinkedIn、Telegram、Whatsapp、Slack、Facebook、Instagramその他）。外部のウィキメディア傘下にない営利目的で多くの場合、使用料が発生するソフトウェアと対照的に、技能の貸し借りプロジェクトはメタを補完しながら同時に私たちのウィキメディア運動の価値観と互換性があるよう目指しています。私たちは公開で無料、安全な空間をウィキメディアの交流のために特別に設計し提供したいと目指しています。
CapX chose to rely on the strength and solidity of Wikimedia projects and their communities envisioning data security and the maintenance of user and organization information. It is running on the Wikimedia Cloud Services, specifically at Toolforge. The platform is multilanguage, by being connected to TranslateWiki platform, and complies with the privacy and security settings of Wikimedia projects (See CapX Privacy Policy here). To learn more about these technical choices, visit CapX's documentation.
How can I connect with other users?
The goal of the CapX tool is to map capacities and pair those who are willing to share with those who wish to learn. While the tool facilitates the matching between these parties, the exchange must take place outside of it.
Wikimedians can share with their peers in any way that works best for them, or they can look for peer support initiatives, such as Let's Connect.
Despite this, the tool does offer a channel for exchange between peers: the messaging service. Messages are sent through Meta-Wiki and, therefore, offer the same privacy and options.
To access the feature, click on the hamburger menu in the upper right corner of the screen and select Messages, or go directly to capx.toolforge.org/message. You can also access this page by clicking on the Let's talk button located at the bottom of a user's profile page.
Go to the Capacity Exchange User Guide to see more information about it.
技能開発をめぐる過去の例、既存のもの、将来とどう連携するの？
既存のイニシアティブ（取り組み）と比べ、技能開発についてそれぞれの強みやニーズや将来の展望を調べています。私たちの目標とは、プラットフォームの開発に既存の意見を反映すること。それと合わせて、技能開発に関心のある人たちの人脈作り、この主題のより拡大したエコシステムを戦略的に開発することを目指します。
Also, the platform is helping to create a network of people interested in capacity building, enabling strategic development of a larger ecosystem around the topic. We are always open to discussions about potential collaborations and partnerships. Reach out to us at capx

How can I create a user profile?
To join the Capacity Exchange platform, you must have a Wikimedia user account, as access to the tool is done through Wikimedia Unified Login.
To create a user profile, go to the capx.toolforge.org home page, click on Join for the Exchange! or click on Log in on the menu located at the upper right corner of the page. After logging in to Meta-Wiki and authorizing access to your basic data, you are already registered.
You can then choose to fill out your profile with all the information you want others to find about you. To learn more about How to edit your profile, visit the CapX User Guide.
How can I create an organization profile?
All user groups, initiatives, projects, chapters or other entities that want to, can have their organization profile on Capacity Exchange. To create it, they must inform the CapX team of all usernames that should have editing rights. This process is done manually by the CapX team to increase security and prevent malicious edits.
To be added as admins, the indicated users must have already created their profiles on CapX because edits on the organization profile will be made using their individual logins. To learn how to edit the organization profile, go to the Capacity Exchange User Guide.
Why do I need to create an account to access the tool?
You don't need to create an account to access the tool, but you do need it to access all its features.
We have chosen to keep user information accessible only after login as a security measure. While we do not handle non-public user information (except for that entered in the mini bio text – see CapX Privacy Policy), keeping user data behind the login process makes it harder for web crawlers to access it.
It is important to note that you do not need to provide any information to navigate the tool: just log in using your Wikimedia user account. However, keeping your profile completed and updated will allow you a better experience.
Which information is available to logged-out users?
For security reasons, we choose to keep users data behind the login process. If you read the CapX Privacy Policy and still doesn't want to create your user profile, you still can access the landing page, the Organization List, and the Events page.
It's important to note that you can always choose to delete your profile. As we are in compliance with GDPR, when you delete your profile all information is deleted from the database and cannot be recovered.
Can I make suggestions about the existing features?
Of course! CapX is a living tool, constantly evolving and ready to adapt to the different needs of Wikimedians. All suggestions are very welcome and can be made through the Bug Reports tool or by email (capx@wmnobrasil.org).
Can I translate the tool to my language?
Yes, please!
We want CapX to be as diverse and accessible as possible, and to achieve this, it is essential that the tool and the project are available in various languages.
- To translate Meta-wiki pages, simply use the project's translation tool – go ahead!
- To translate the tool, access the project's page on Translatewiki and follow the steps provided by the platform.
- To translate capacities and their respective descriptions, one has to translate each item on Wikidata and MetaBase. We created a step-by-step tutorial in the User Guide and have provided all the direct links to make it easier.
