Hi,

I contribute to MediaWiki help and manual pages sometimes as I figure out how things work. If I write something inappropriate, please let me know. If I am just wrong, please correct.

I am a novice sysadmin but I system administrate an open educational resources wiki for teachers of English as a second or foreign language, http://wikigogy.org, on a Dreamhost.com virtual hosting account (soon I'll move to SiteGround.org because Dreamhost's MySQL servers are too slow!). I could not do it without sites like MediaWiki.org and email lists such as mediawiki-l. I want to help MediaWiki.org grow into an effective MediaWiki documentation wiki. Thanks for your help!

Roger Chrisman :-)

Community portal
MediaWiki.org needs a Community portal link in the left sidebar. It's a wiki with great community potential but it needs to welcome newcomers effectively to itself for a true wiki community to thrive here. A wiki without an effective community is a sad thing, especially when it has as much genuine user interest as MediaWiki.org has.
