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.

MediaWiki 軟件嘅幫手
There are a few forums around the internet where you can get help both with using MediaWiki and with setting up MediaWiki.


 *  Project:Support desk 
 * MediaWiki Users forum ( Unofficial )
 * StackExchange's #mediawiki tag (RSS feed) ( Unofficial )
 * Reddit's MediaWiki group ( Unofficial )

Easy to use chat
There are a few different discord-like chat servers where help can be found depending on the topic:


 * 1) Wikimedia Chat - For movement-wide discussions, not just technical matters. Started in September 2020, using Mattermost chat (details)
 * 2) MediaWiki Discord - Unofficial, topics include wiki installation, operation, skinning, custom developments (details)
 * 3) Outreachy programs chat - For Outreachy programs, using Zulip chat (details)
 * 4) Telegram @wmhack group - For Hackathon related questions (details)

IRC
on irc.freenode.net is the around-the-clock for technical questions.


 * 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.

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
There are several 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.
