Communication/ne

अरु मेडिया-विकि प्रयोगकर्ताहरुसँग सम्पर्क गर्न वा सहयोग माग्न थुप्रै तरिकाहरु छन् ।

Landing
यी राम्रा सुरुवात हुन् ।


 * रजिस्टर र आफ्नो प्रयोगकर्ता पृष्ठमा आफ्नो बारे केही लेख्निहोस् ।
 * समाचार र सामाजिक-सन्जालका च्यानलहरु पछ्याउनुस् ।
 * नयाँ गतिविधि बारे इ-मेलमा जानकारी पाउन विकि-टेक घोषणामा सबस्क्राइब गर्नुहोस् ।
 * $मिडियाविकि-irc IRC च्यानलमा सामेल हुनुहोस् वा थपमा पनि सामेल हुनुहोस् ।


 * पक्का गर्नुहोस् कि तपाइँले प्रिफेरेन्समा गएर इ-मेल कन्फरमेसन र इ-मेल नोटिफिकेसन सुचारु गर्नुभएको छ ।
 * "वाच लिस्ट" आफूलाई मन परेको पृष्ठ पछ्याउन तारामा क्लिक गर्नुहोस् जसमा तपाई पनि योगदान गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ ।
 * आफ्नो वासस्थान र विचार मिल्ने मेडिया विकि समूह पाउनु भएछ भने धेरै राम्रो ।

गफगाफ
#mediawiki on irc.freenode.net is the around-the-clock for realtime communication. If you don't have an IRC client, use web chat.


 * Please read the 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, the , the , or other , 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.

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


 * mediawiki-l (or via Gmane) (or via your newsreader) is the high-traffic mailing list to ask for support.
 * wikitech-l (or via Gmane) (or via your newsreader) is the high-traffic mailing list for software development, especially when it relates to Wikimedia (not just MediaWiki) wikis.
 * 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).

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.

For help with the MediaWiki software
There is no "official" forum or discussion board, but there are some unofficial ones, for instance on StackExchange. See also the MediaWiki Developers Facebook group.

You can also post support questions at Project:Support desk, though this is less frequented than the other sources of help listed on this page.
