IRC

[#mediawiki ^connect #mediawiki] na irc.freenode.net nonstop IRC kanál pre komunikáciu v reálnom čase. Ak nemáte IRC klienta, použite [$3 web chat].

• Predtým, než napíšete požiadavku, prečítajte si prosím $1.
• Váš problém popíšte okamžite a počkajte na odpoveď. Nazačínajte s "je tam niekto" alebo "môže mi niekto pomôcť". Toto je štandardná IRC etiketa, ktorá dovoľuje účastníkom venovať sa aj iným veciam.
• Počkajte krátky čas na prvú odpoveď, zvlášť v čase mimo špičky. Napriek tomu, s ohľadom na dobrovoľníka, ktorý sa vám snaží pomôcť, okrem zdvorilosti by ste mali na jeho otázky reagovať okamžite.

Ak nedostanete odpoveď, môže to znamenať:

• V danom čase tu nikto nie je. Ak je kanál celkovo tichý, skúste to znova neskôr.
• Kladiete otázku, na ktorú nikto nepozná odpoveď alebo ktorej zodpovedanie vyžaduje príliš veľa práce.

Otázky týkajúce sa problémov s vašou konkrétnou inštaláciou MediaWiki sa vo všeobecnosti najlepšie zodpovedajú na IRC, keďže často vyžadujú obojstrannú diskusiu na nájdenie príčiny problému, čo je cez emailovú konferenciu zdĺhavé.

Emailové konferencie

There are several Mailing lists available. The recommended ones are:

• mediawiki-l (or via Gmane) (or via your newsreader) is the high-traffic mailing list to ask for help with using or setting up MediaWiki.
• wikitech-l (or via Gmane) (or via your newsreader) is the high-traffic mailing list for both MediaWiki and Wikimedia software development.
• mediawiki-announce (or via Gmane) (or via your newsreader) is a low-traffic list for announcements of new MediaWiki releases and security updates (all messages also go to mediawiki-l).

• wikitech-ambassadors Announcements about upcoming changes on Wikimedia websites. This list is primarily aimed at end users of Wikimedia wikis, not the MediaWiki software in general.

Please check the archives first! All three lists are also available through Gmane which provides access as newsgroups or in various web-based formats, and includes its own archives and archive search.
