溝通方法

呢度有好多方法可以同其他嘅MediaWiki用戶聯絡，或者得到即時嘅幫助。建議可以用下面嘅方法。

登錄

呢啲係一啲開始嘅幾個好建議:

• 登錄並且加一啲有關你嘅嘢喺你嘅使用者頁面。
• 追蹤新聞同我哋嘅社交媒體。
• 訂閱維基技術更新去攞有關新活動嘅Email。
• 加入 [[#mediawiki ^connect|IRC]]或者更多。

• Make sure you have an email address confirmed and email notifications enabled in your mediawiki.org preferences.
• "Watch" (click the star icon of) the pages you want to follow and perhaps contribute to.
• All the better if you find a MediaWiki Group that matches your location or interests!

傾計房

响 irc.freenode.net 嘅 #mediawiki 係一個即時通訊嘅全天候性IRC頻道。If you don't have an IRC client, use web chat.

• Please read the FAQ before asking.
• State your problem immediately and wait for a response. Don't ask "is there anyone here" or "can someone help me". This is normal IRC etiquette and allows participants to multitask effectively.
• Expect to wait for some time for an initial response, especially in off-peak times. Despite this, out of courtesy for the volunteer who is helping you, try to answer their questions promptly.

If you don't get an answer, this could mean one of a number of things:

• Nobody was around at the time of day you chose. If the channel is generally quiet, come back later.
• You're asking a question which nobody knows the answer to, or which requires a lot of work to answer.
• You're asking a question which is in the FAQ, the help, the manual, or other documentation, and the volunteers in the channel feel it would be best if you found it yourself.

Questions relating to problems with your particular installation of MediaWiki are generally best answered on IRC, since they often require a back-and-forth exchange to isolate the problem, which is tedious when performed on the mailing lists.

郵件名單

一齊嚟啦！

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

• mediawiki-l (或者經Gmane) (或者經你嘅新聞組閱讀器) 係一個高流量問嘢嘅郵件名單。
• wikitech-l (或者經Gmane) (或者經你嘅新聞組閱讀器) 係一個高流量開發統籌嘅郵件名單。
• mediawiki-announce (或者經Gmane) (或者經你嘅新聞組閱讀器) 係一個低流量嘅新MediaWiki發行版同埋保安更新嘅郵件名單 (另外響 mediawiki-l 都會收到呢度嘅訊息)。

• 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.

請先睇過個歸檔先！ 上面全部嘅名單都可以響Gmane度搵到，可以提供畀新聞組閱讀器或者某啲以網頁為主嘅格式去用，佢又包括埋佢自己嘅歸檔同埋歸檔搜尋。
