Developers/Maintainers
< Developers(Redirected from Developers/Accounts)
Developers/MaintainersEdit
This is a list of developers who know the most about, and maintain, MediaWiki core, key extensions, and Wikimedia servers.
To be listed as a maintainer, a person has to have +2 access to the relevant Git repository and regularly respond to bug reports and changeset review requests.
If you are a maintainer, please consider using/configuring Gerrit to send you an email for new patchsets in a repository. Alternatively you can add yourself to the Gerrit Reviewer Bot which will automatically add you as a review to each new patchset.
Anyone can list themselves as in training to maintain something, signaling that they want to learn more and achieve maintainership within the next year.
Code StewardsEdit
Code Stewards are ultimately responsible for the development policies, support, and overall health of the code in question. As MediaWiki continues to grow and become further depended on by millions of users, it has become increasingly important that the code-base remains healthy while also enabling the continue evolution of its capabilities. Code Stewards enable this by committing to a base level of support such as bug fixes and code reviews. For more information regarding stewardship, please see Development policy/Code Stewardship.

| WikimediaApiPortal | Yes | WikimediaApiPortal is a skin for MediaWiki created by the Wikimedia Foundation Platform Engineering Team in 2020 as part of the API Gateway initiative. The skin is designed to mimic the look and feel of conventional developer portals by incorporating header and sidebar navigation elements and following the Wikimedia Design Style Guide. The skin uses the Bootstrap CSS framework, OOUI library, and Mustache templates. The skin was created for use with the Wikimedia API Portal, so some elements of the design such as the site logo and footer are specific to Wikimedia. | Core Platform Team | Core Platform Team | #MediaWiki-skins-WikimediaApiPortal |

Upstream projects and librariesEdit
Main article: Upstream projects
There are many upstream projects on which MediaWiki, extensions, and/or Wikimedia depend. Some of them were "invented here", as stand-along libraries, or split out as part of the Library infrastructure for MediaWiki project. Some of them are widely-used third party tools to which community members provide improvements or support. Others are merely used with gratitude.
