How to report a bug/ms

These guidelines explain how to write a good bug report or feature request (a task) in Wikimedia's task tracker (see for more information). Well-written tasks are more likely to be collaborated on.

Quick recommendations

 * Be precise
 * Be clear: explain how to reproduce the problem, step by step, so others can reproduce the bug, or understand the request.
 * Include only one problem per task
 * Include any relevant links and examples

Reporting a JavaScript bug

 * See also: Help:Locating broken scripts

When you encounter a bug that may be related to JavaScript, do your best to identify error messages and copy them into the bug report.

It's especially important to provide all the information you have, because even the system administrators will have zero access to any error log. If you are unsure whether a feature you are using is based on JavaScript, try disabling JavaScript.

It's always helpful to include a screenshot with your report. It's often the easiest way to identify which feature you're talking about, and can often provide information which can help narrow down the error. Take care to hide any information you don't want to share, like other open browsers tabs or minimised chat windows.
