The #mediawiki IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channel (on freenode.net) is the best form of real-time communication for discussion of or questions about the MediaWiki software. You will often find developers or other knowledgeable users who will be happy to answer any technical questions you may have. You can use this web page to connect.

It's okay to "lurk" (hang around and listen without talking), and sometimes you won't get an answer immediately. This explanation tells you a little more about how to use IRC channels to talk about open source.

使用前

 * 3) Search MediaWiki.org, Meta-Wiki and Google for a solution to your problem.

#wikimedia-dev


This channel is used by developers for day-to-day work. It's very similar in scope to #mediawiki, with the main difference being that it's typically where developers go to talk discuss about changes in the MediaWiki software (and Wikimedia repositories), whereas #mediawiki is more targeted at the users of the software.
 * Updates from many of the repositories are posted (and usually discussed) here, thanks to the grrrit-wm bot.
 * The bug triage meetings also take place here.
